In short: A really great event.
In full: One of the best events thanks to the enthusiasm of the marshalls and aid station volunteers. A testing course that relentlessly goes up and down (more up than down) and when the sun shines it looks lovely. Well done to all involved.

In short: A quality race on a challenging course
In full: I was a little disappointed with the race route - there was a lot of twists and turns through housing estates and some stretches along a sliver of a main road. Fortunately the organisation and the marshalls made up for this. And I have to mention the twatty impatient and dangerous car drivers - not the organiser's fault, of course, but it might stop me coming back.

In short: If Carlsberg organised races...
In full: I expected this to be a well-organised and friendly event but I didn't expect it to be this good. From the friendly and supportive marshalls to the packed goody bag; from the spot prizes to the facilities; and from the testing course to the brass band; this was how races should be. You get the impression that the organisers made sure that the runners were always the number one priority. Thank you very very much.

In short: A testing two laps with a couple of loops, tough hills and excellent support
In full: There were no surprises, the hills were either long and steady or short and sharp. Some of the route was dull, some of it scenic. The duffle bag made a nice change. A grand day out.
