In short: Brilliant 10k - A proper race.
In full: As usual well organised, great value and what running is all about - unlike overpriced, charity dominated races elsewhere.

In short: Fast!
In full: Very peebeeable. All roads (Country lanes) virtually traffic free thanks to good marshalling, dead flat. All gun times (no chips). Lovely goody bag (they don't call it the Christmas pudding race for nothing!). Hot soup for finishers too. Could do with a few more portaloos but what race couldn't.
