In short: Good event. Nice atmosphere. No cows next year please!
In full: The fun run should have started just after the main event so that little people didn't get in the way at the start.Cows in one of the fields caused a problem at one stage, however, I would do this one again next year. I think that many people would prefer a slightly longer route to make this into a 10K race.

In short: Friendly atmosphere, great scenery and very well organised. All the advantages of a small, friendly event with organisation as good as a much bigger event

In short: Very quick race and large amounts of downhill give this race a good PB potential. Small hilly sections, but could have been a couple more martials, and also maybe an official 6 miles/10km race would be nice too.

In short: Fantastic race, loved the area. Have suggested to Frome RC they have it as one of the Grand Prix series for the club
In full: Only slight criticism was lack of marshalls in a critical place on the circuit, meaning some of us went wrong. Otherwise, marshalls were great and offered encouragement. Will def be back....
