In short: Amusing run around the race track - nice easy start where you can hang out indoors with a Mercedes!
In full: This is the 2nd time I have run this race - my friends live nearby. I like the fact you can hang out at Mercedes world and keep dry and warm until 5 minutes before race time! Not alot of people. Lots of twists and turns but its friendly. Rather different medal this year - a car!

In short: Dull but quick - and where were running clubs?
In full: Weird, I've never run a 10k before where there seemed to be no running clubs represented.
Had weather been as bad as forecast, being a ble to stay in the dry in Mercedes World would have been invaluable.

In short: Great venue for PB and also spectators
In full: I only rated the scenery as dull as it really is, after all, just circuits of a racing track. But get your music on, your head down, and focus and you can have a great race. The circuit loops past the same point several times os is great for spectators but at the same time I didn't feel like I was going round in circles. Where you thought the end would be, is where the end was so you didn't get that awful feeling of dread a la British 10k of going pointlessly up and down just to make up the mileage. The route was well signed, the marshalls were encouraging, and the Goodness Shake on the finish was well worth the effort :-) It's the small things... A hot chocolate in the cafe and a peruse around some v expensive cars afterwards made us want to hang around for a bit more of a morning out. Fabulous!
