In short: A great combination of road, cross country and hills set in fabulous scenery
In full: I really liked this event which was challenging but immensely enjoyable. The hill in the first mile is a tough going but it is followed by a long off road down hill section. The venue is in a fabulous setting and was almost worth the trip alone

In short: A great race which is a favourite for most local people
In full: This is a great race which is at the mercy of the weather. 2010 was very windy which is tough going running along the sea front but was behind you for the longer section through the country. Its a 2 lap course so you know what to expect on lap 2. A great event and a credit to Felixstowe Road Runners

In short: A special race with an international flavour
In full: I really enjoyed this race, it was one of those races with a local feel which was great to run. I guess the weather could make a difference, today the wind blew us home and it was great running along the promenade. I really enjoyed it

In short: A great event, it was my first time and I can see why it is very popular
In full: This is a challenging event as it is off road and the first 1.5 k is up hill. The scenery more than compensates for this. There were many nice touches, i really enjoyed the National Anthem at the start!

In short: A tough course, definitely not a race for the feint hearted
In full: This was my 20th race in 12 weeks and was one of the toughest I have done, not helped by the Friday night hangover! The hill at the starts shouldnt be underestimated. I enjoy cross country and loved the course through the woods. A welcome change from plodding along on the road

In full: A very well organised race on a challenging course. Credit for City of Norwich for their organisational skills. The two laps included a hill which was about 1 k of each lap, but there was an equally long descent. The ladies were complainign about a lack of toilet facilities but apart from that a very good quality event
