In short: Fast and flat (I'm not from Norfolk) and very well organised.
In full: I was very impressed with the turnout of club runners. It seemed to attract the more serious amateur athletes. The distribution of prizes was very inclusive, rewarding runners in many different age categories.

In short: wow this year was extra hot!!
In full: love this event its always friendly and well supported. Its a challenging course but great countryside to help you along the way. Nice momento and generous goody bag well done to the organisers. only grip was that this year was mega hot and was forecast to be; so dissapointed there was only 2 water stations! nowhere near enough in that sort of heat but well done to all the marshalls who had to stand out on the course it must have been equally hot for them!!!!!

In short: Wow! very hot. This race seems to grow year on year its become a big favourite on the Norfolk fixture list.lk
In full: This race has become popular I think because the course is scenic and challenging with a few hills. The organisation is very good and they seem to create a good atmosphere before and after the race.I like the commemorative glass, after competing the last 3 years I'm building a collection.

In short: Hot, hot, hot! And hilly. The combination makes it a slow race but friendly and a pleasant Sunday run if you don't mind a bit of mild dehydration!

In short: The friendliest race on the Norfolk Circuit?
In full: Certainly the organisation and planning that goes into the race, and the friendly Reedham locals, made this a very enjoyable run. It was baking hot, which scuppered any PB potential, but that's not something that can be controlled.
My only minor gripe would be the post-race bag could be a bit healthier - crisps and a mars bar aren't really great post-race snacks. But that is a minor point and overall this is a great race.

In short: Top race
In full: Very muggy day - wouldn't have turned down a second water station with the sponges. Thanks to all the organisers & marshalls. Very pleasant day out with a nice goody bag. Well done Humpty Dumpty for raising money for First Responders.

In short: Good atmosphere, but not a PB course
In full: Not a course to tackle in the summer in my opinion and not a PB. It was too hot/muggy for me and too darn hilly. Well organised and good atmosphere.
