In short: Well organised
In full: Well organised with lots of marshalls etc. Mainly run over fields and on the thames path but with some hills. Not a PB course.

In short: Nice race with hills
In full: Not really PB potential but definitely a nice race, good atmosphere, nice countryside run - watch out for the cow pats. Worth a go for experienced and beginners alike.

In short: Really enjoyed the race. Good mix of hill climbs and multi-terrain flats
In full: A really well organised race with a good feeling about it. The marshalling was good and it was helpful to see the warning signs about the uneven ground etc. One slight peculiarity was the start which if were not in the first few rows had you doubling back on yourself. Other than that good fun and definitely going in the calendar for next year.

In short: A friendly, well organised race with a great atmosphere.
In full: This is definitely one of my favourite races. The organisation was superb from the excellent pre-race information all the way through. It had a nice relaxed family atmosphere, well marked route with friendly marshalls and glorious scenery. The only thing I think it could do with is perhaps a couple more people at the water station. Well done to everyone involved and I'll hopefully be back next year.
