In short: Nice jaunt
In full: Entered on the day for this one, first time Ive done this race and it was very much a Club race, but then it is a Dorset Road League Race and not much else to be there for, apart from the Leisure Centre right next door, my one BIG gripe is the lack of results almost 2 weeks down the line and 3 e-mails with no answer, not good for a DDRL race.

In short: A popular, well organised, race
In full: Organisation by Littledown Harriers was great, brilliant facilities at the Sports Center, plenty of free parking, cheery marshalls (and plenty of them) encouraging all runners on this slighty twisty course. I loved the atmosphere in the finishing field after the slight downhill finish and the gorgeous weather helped alot too!!

In short: Nice encouraging, friendly marshals.
In full: First time at this, really enjoyed it. Was taking mile splits but I didn't see a 4 mile marker. Well marshalled, with lots of encouragement. Definitely put it on my calendar for next year.
