In short: Hot & Hilly !
In full: Had forgotten how hilly this run is ! - A good challenge and good to run on closed off roads, very hilly for the first 7 kms but the last 3 are a blast to the finish, good fun

In short: Hilly and challenging
In full: A very well organised event with a nice run through town before out into the ( Hilly ) countryside, nice run through some villages where some support was, but is hilly and difficult, was doing fine till 10 mile mark where my left leg cried enough ! - got to the end but it was painful - more training is needed I fear !

In short: A very enjoyable race!
In full: I did this last year and found it to be a great race - very well organised. This year seemed to be a bit a bit lower key but was again a very slickly run race, some wicked climbs but a challenging course, well supported too.

In short: Race of the year for me !
In full: What a brilliant job the organisers have done to improve on the few problems last year - A very slickly organised event, contrary to other reports - the new course IS much better and the snow just made the day! - wonderous views over Leamington, my best race in three years of running.
