In short: Well organised race, ideal for beginners, great to run up to Olympic stadium.
In full: Good organisation, friendly marshalls and fairly priced in comparison to some other races. Medals handed out by Sharon Davies and Tessa Sanderson was a surprise bonus. Good out and back course turning at the olympic stadium. Flat, lots of turns to slow you down, but it is possible to get a pb on this course. Only minor gripe was the narrow start, it would be better to start outside park and allow everyone to run at their pace immediately. Def do it again.

In short: Great day out, well organised, good for new runners.

Great organisation.
Good for new runners (as confirmed by a friend who did this as his first 10k).

In short: My first 10km and I loved it!
In full: The race wasn't the flattest, but it was certainly fast. I had never done a 10k, and my pb was 22.27 for 5km, which I did 18 months ago. Olympic stadium is amazing and marsialling and support were brilliant. Had a time in mind of 47 minutes and ran 43.36, breaking my 5km time too! Brilliant race!
