In short: Well done Hermitage
In full: Decided on Saturday night to run this one instead of another in Nottingham knowing it would be challenging. Wasn't disappointed at how hard the course was as I live near in Loughborough.
Well marshalled, well supported and vfm was excellent which puts larger well established races to shame.
Will be looking to run this next year for sure and can see this getting a popular local event next year

In short: Well organised, hilly race.
In full: Very well organised race, Marshalls did excellent job, very friendly - thanks to everyone involved.
Very hilly first 4 miles (up mainly) but last couple were pretty much all downhill. T-shirt very nice grey and liked the inflatable finish line - great to actually be able to see a finish line from a few hundred yards out.
Please don't let me have #1 next year!

In full: Good, challenging course - hillier than I expected. Really well organised, excellent t-shirt & goody bag containing milkshake and chocolate (what more could you want). Congratulations on a great event - see you next year.

In short: A tough course with brilliant organisation and marshalling.
In full: Proud to be part of the Hermitage club.
Entertainment and T-shirts provided for cheap as chips entry price and a lovely cheeseburger afterwards.
Course sorts the wheat from the chaff and will be tough to PB but come to experience the first 5km- a pure climb. Myself, I love hills and thoroughly enjoyed it.
Well done to organisers Andy, Bob, Paul, John, Caroline and the team. Who'd have thought this was the clubs first organised race.
Only note for next year try to move finish to the field near the start- Greater viewing area.
