In short: Nice rice, not sure about the stretch along the A4 though!
In full: I did enjoy it in parts but didn't enjoy going around again, that was a bit boring. Also the stretch along the A4 wasn't very nice. However, the marshals were nice and the atmospher was quite good and it was well organised.

In short: Well organised and friendly
In full: Well organised, started on time, very friendly. Plenty of space to change in the school and efficient bag storage. 2 flat laps around the village, although overtaking tricky in places on narrow paths.
Would definitely do it again.

In short: Great for all abilities
In full: The marshalls were very helpful and some were very encouraging. I enjoyed the 2 lap route as it felt new the first time and familiar the second. Although it's a flat course, the footpaths made overtaking hard so not quite full marks for PB potential. However as I wasn't in top shape this year, this didn't upset me as it forced me to take breathers! Overall a very enjoyable race. Thanks for everyone's efforts. I would definitely run it again. And to the guy with whom I had a titanic(!)sprint around 48mins: I pulled a muscle, but it was worth it!

In short: Another great way to end the year
In full: This was the 7th time I'd run this one. It was my first 10k so I always like to support it. As always it was well organised and there were plenty of marshalls, especially at the road junctions. Thanks again to everyone concerned.

In short: Friendly local 10K nirvana!
In full: As usual a brilliantly friendly well marshalled low-key 10k which has charm and pb potential-they don't get much better than this. Oh & thank you to the marshalls who found my i-pod after i dropped it!
