In short: The route was too short so my joy at smashing my PB was short lived :(
In full: I can understand why they needed to change the route this year but surely in these days of GPS devices it shouldn't be that hard to measure the course more accurately? OK, it's a charity 'fun run' but if you charge 18 quid for entry, you could at least measure the course. Would have been easy to make it a bit longer by making the last bit in the park longer. Otherwise advertise it next year as a 6 mile race not 10k (I made it 5.84 miles on Garmin).

In short: Great atmosphere and the infamous hill isn't as bad as everyone says. Smashed by PB, look forward to next year.
