In full: Excellet race. A bit narrow in places but I achieved a PB. first time under 50 min so pleased. One main gripe was that there was no where safe to put your bag or car keys and since I went by myself I had to carry my keys around with me. Definately run the race again. Scenery was great.

In short: Very good race, will do it again next year. Only gripe was how long it took to get the results out and the presentation done. For a first event, it's well done!

In short: A nice race to ease myself back in! Nice course with mild undulation, well organised and great walnut cake afterwards! Very friendly crowd of runners and organisers, well worth the trip!

In short: A nice easy 10k run. Wet conditions this year made it difficult to overtake, but good fun and friendly atmosphere.

In short: Well organised and friendly. A little wet this year, but a dry course should bring a PB.
