In short: Really great little race..great scenery
In full: This is a really great little race for everyone no matter their ability. The weather was really kind and made the day. The road closure helped and the atmosphere was good. Would def recommend this one. Its really flat so is a PB race for sure. Good organisation and nice t-shirt at the end. The nice thing with that was you could choose a size that fits you which doesn't happen in many other races.

In short: Great race for all standards.
In full: This is the one-lap version of the 10K course, so good scenery through Baiter Park and Pooel Harbour, and road closures enable plenty of space on the course enabling good times. Good organisation. Highly recommended for all standards including beginners.
