In short: Well marshaled and good flat race
In full: I enjoyed this one. It was very well marshaled with the traffic, etc. The route was mainly flat with one up hill and of course one down hill! I would probably have liked to have seen a water station slightly earlier and possibly more than one, but then I guess no one was expecting the sun to come out! The venue has free car parking and the facilities were good. The fun run was exceptionally good value for the kids. Well done to the organisers and the marshals - spectacular job.

In short: Deceptively hard course. Each to find, plenty of parking.
In full: On paper it looks flat but it is deceptively hard, or maybe I was enjoying the views to much.

In short: Excellant event, what organisation.
In full: Mostly flat with a couple of mild climbs. First class organisation, marshalling and goody bag.

In short: Great day out in the wind.
In full: The event had grown since 2005 - but extra numbers were well handled and caterered for by the super organised Newquay Road Runners. The hill on 2 miles doesnt get any easier but I was ready for it this year!
Thanks to all connected with Newquay Road Runners. Great event (again) guys. See you in 07.

In short: Super race with great organisation
In full: Well worth the long journey for me and a PB. Well organised with friendly stewards doing a great job organising traffic and shouting encouragement. One evil hill between 2m and 3m, which was a great relief on the way back!

My kids did the fun run. I had to crowbar their medals off them when I put them to bed tonight. Great effort Nequay road runners. A great family day and I hope to be back next year.

In short: Well organised event with PB potential
In full: Only one hill worthy of the name, and that was short and sharp. A nice undulating course, which was largely traffic free except for the first and final miles. Race Marshals were spot-on, efficiently ushering runners across one fairly busy road and around the final roundabout.
