In short: Scenic and friendly and fairly quick; recommended.
In full: Lovely course with friendly and supportive marshals for this race around the lanes. A few hills to keep it interesting but nothing too serious and it turned out to be a surprisingly quick course for me (PB). Lovely cool sunshine. Thanks to Cheadle Running Club.

In short: Undulating!!!!
In full: Enjoyed the race, everyone seemed very friendly, weather was beautiful, if a little cold. Course was undulating, to say the least and the last mile was gently uphill. No problems though, would recommend to anyone of any ability.

In short: Excellent race - got a 'joint' pb!
In full: As seems to be par for the course for this race, the rain began just at the start!
However, this did not detract from an otherwise excellent race, with a very nice atmosphere and superb organisation.
Support for this race continues to be from relatively far afield, reflecting the good reputation of the race (eg runners from Rotherham, Bingley, Oxford, Coventry and Telford).
Good day all round and many other runners seemed to feel the same.
