In full: It was a definite club race, but I was made to feel very welcome. The MArshalls were extremely supportive and I had a great day out!

In short: 3rd time around it's no easier
In full: This race has a strange charm - it's a tough one but a challenge and I keep coming back.
Thanks guys, but could it be cooler next year (although I appreciated the water)

In full: My 1st ever road race, felt very comfortable...well until someone told me it was soooo hilly! Was very satisfying to know it was so tough and do pretty well afterwards. As I say it was very hilly but scenic in parts and freindly. Tons of water stations (Which after just completing another 10k race this weekend with only 1 water stop at 7km) I can tell you it is very welcome. Loved it.

In short: Tough but fun. Nice goody bag and Tee shirt
In full: While we were out running did someone move the Leisure Centre from the bottom to the top of the hill because it didn't feel as though we ran down as far as we ran up!!!A great hard course.Thanks to all the marshalls and spectators for all their shouts of encouragement.......they were needed!!

In full: My home town race but first time entrant. Ran the route twice in training so new what to expect. Garmin clocked it at 6.6 miles. Long way off. did anyone else have this problem. Critical that your pacing is on the money or it will be all over very soon. Lots of walkers after the immense hill sections Be back next year though.
