In short: very nice run, i was very impressed
In full: the run was realy nice and i enjoyed the views, as not from the area, two things spoilt it - one bloke swearing because he could'nt pass people at the begining, and secondly the bloke with the i-pod who spat over myself and a lady runner.
yes i would run it again.
brilliant!!!!

In full: Had a fantastic race, got another PB despite the undulating course. The views along the course made it all worthwhile. I'll be back next year without a doubt. Well done to all organisers and helpers.

In short: Well organised, nice t-shirt
In full: Enjoyed this race very much ... however is it just me, but I found it quite challenging, felt like a steady uphill run ... enjoyed the challenge though. Well organised, marshalls encouraging, and despite the weather the crowds were enthusiastic, thanks to all concerned

In short: Well organised - from Parking to T-Shirt!
In full: Great day - something for the whole family - mine took advantage of every event! The kiddies caper was the best kids race I've come across - the Hedgehog, Dog and Banana did great jobs keeping the kids going - thanks lads! The half-marathon was very well organised, marshalled and supported all the way round - thanks to everyone for your efforts in the damp weather! Great quality t.shirt.

In short: Good race - even the weather didn't dampen the spirits
In full: First time that I taken part but had heard lots of good reviews, all of them proved true - excellent race, definite PB potential. Good venue, fairly traffic free (except for a few Chelsea Tractors), nice hills and good vista's. T-shirt at the end was better than most that I have received.
Only 1 critism - need more toilets, especially if they intend to increase the field size next year.
