In short: Very good overall - as usual !
In full: As usual, a well organised event with great atmosphere and a (nicely coloured this year)memento at the end. Definitely a must-do each year for me.

Two suggestions though;
1 - Keep spectators away from the area behind the village hall after the race. With the number of runners it was tricky to get through amidst the buggies and bikes of the well wishers.

2 - The car park marshals had left the scene when it was time to depart. Cars were trying to get into the car park whilst the majority were trying to leave which was causing problems back through the village

In short: Challenging course on a sweltering day !
In full: A well thought out course with great views. Enjoyed the split at 5k with the 10M runners going left and the 10k runners going right.

Cheeky hill hidden in the woods at 6 miles was a bit of a test.. great marshalling and superb effort that there were 3 water stations en-route.

In short: Very good overall - as usual !
In full: Only improvement would be to the chip return and t-shirt pick up area. Got a bit congested and could be improved by keeping it clear / putting in one way barriers up to this point
