In full: A good race especially for 1st timers but very surprised that a race of that standing had every mile marker incorrectly placed and therefore not a true half to compare to other pbs, as course longer by at least 0.2miles! Not just my garmin that was measuring this but all around me!!

In short: Fantastic muddy and wet XC Race
In full: Thoroughly enjoyed The Hardwick X-Stream. It was very muddy and very wet but I loved every minute of it. It helped that it was such a lovely morning. The marshal's were all very good at catching me, as I went flying over the ditches! The atmosphere between the runner's as I was going round, was also very uplifting. A nice memento at the end too. Well worth the entrance fee.

In short: Brilliant race as usual and made extra challenging this year by the weather.
In full: Marlow was fantastic again and the flooding made it extra special! In all the years I've been running I've never run through so much freezing water, but I thoroughly enjoyed it. The marshal's were very supportive in horrible conditions. Will be back again next year to run this very challenging race again:-)

In short: Very good race and an interesting course
In full: It was a very good race and an interesting winding route in places. It was very well marshalled and they were all very supportive.
There were a few teething problems with collecting number's and chips,the mile marker's were out in places and the overall distance was slightly short. I've never run a 5.51 mile before ;-) I'm sure these problems will be sorted out for next year's race and I will be definitely be back to run it. We got a medal, t-shirt and bottle of water, which was good.

In short: Brilliant, friendly, very good value for money race
In full: A very good 5K race, that was well organised. I'd never had known it was the first time it had been put on.
There were medals, a museli bar and a bottle of water for all finishers. It was excellent value for money. There was also a festival on which made it a great family day out. It was a very good day for Brackley Running Club as we won the men's and women's race. Will definitely be back next year. Well done to all involved.

In short: Excellent Local Race
In full: Very friendly Local Race. It's really nice to see so many youngster's competing, although a bit off putting when they go racing by!
The organisation is very good and it was well marshaled. The only request I have is can the Tee Shirts be in different sizes? The 'L' I received is enormous on me :-( Will definitely be back next year.

In short: Brilliant race made more challenging by the recent wet weather!
In full: Very challenging half marathon. It was a very enjoyable race and made more challenging by the weather. It was the muddiest and most flooded race I've ever run but it was good fun. The marshal's were all very friendly and encouraging. The medal, t-shirt and donut were very good too! Well done Adderbury Running Club for putting on such a great race :-)

In short: Very well organised and friendly race
In full: This was my 5th year of running the Great Weston 5, and as usual it was a very well organised and friendly race. The marshal's were very supportive and the medal and T-shirt were also very nice. I hope they get the link to the results page sorted soon, as it's not working at the moment!
