In short: gutted
In full: Already signed up for Sutton Fun Run and found Holly Prince run is on the same day!! Has the date been altered? Holly Prince Run one of my favourite of the year - so dissapointed. Hope HP dont lose numbers to the big event in Sutton. Always next year I guess!

In short: First 10k after several HM and a marathon. Great that it is run on a Saturday too. Hilly course so not one for smashing PBs but nice mix of runners and has a personal, welcoming touch. Stunning countryside and lovely local farmer's market afterwards.

In short: Excellent scenery. Same track as 2009 but still very enjoyable.
In full: Lovely atmosphere, great venue with beautiful countryside and some nice shady trees in places to help keep the sun off whilst running. Nice Tshirt and generous medal. Well organised and great fun- I did race in 09 and am glad I returned in 2010 too. Thank you.

In short: Certainly not flat, but a great race, lovely atmosphere. I'll be back!
In full: Lovely village, great pub and farmers' market. Race well marshalled & organised. Yes, there were ups, but there was also a nice stretch of flat/downhill to compensate. T-shirt and a medal was unexpected. Jolly good value.
