In short: Very well organised, didn't enjoy the hills!
In full: A really good start to the year. The one mile hill (I measured it) was challenging as I'm not used to any sort of incline but a really good work out and far more interesting than a pancake flat road course. Bonus was getting to see inside the hockey's changing room at Epsom.

In short: Good hillage and horsage
In full: Only complaint is the rubbish towel or washbag at the end. Would rather the price was reduced by the 50p they cost to make

In short: Tough, but fair
In full: Great race to start the year with. Tough-ish course, which keeps the interest up all the year round. Very friendly marshalls (especially the dog in a high-viz vest!), but a shame the mist prevented us from fully enjoying the Downs. Momento was a bit rubbish - perhaps next year they could just take a couple of quid off the entry fee.

In short: a great way to welcome the new year
In full: Very well organised event, loads of smiley marshalls and the surprise of what this years memento is going to be makes this a staple of my start of year calendar.

In full: Tough-ish race but a well organised and well marshalled race makes it worth the trip.

In short: nice atmosphere, well organised
In full: It was a bit of a dreary day but most runners were in high spirits. This was my first race for 2013 and I found it really difficult managing the hills which went on for ever. I have only said I wont do it again because it was just too hard for me personally and I struggled to enjoy it knowing I was way off my normal pace. If you like a challenge then this is the race. Felt a bit cheated in not getting a medal after all that effort but the cool bag is CooL! Lots of support and smiling marshals giving lots of encouragement.

In short: Bit of a toughie for me as I struggle with hills, managed to shave 3 minutes off last years time though so quite pleased with that! nice little cooler bag as a momento, might come in handy for the sarnies!

In full: I have my PB on this course, so it's a PB course for me. Supportive marshals this year. Couldn't hear the starter (as usual) although I was fourth row back. Great facilities at the HQ. Good race!
