In short: Good challenging Half Marathon
In full: I really enjoyed the Kenilworth Half Marathon - The route was challenging as it was quite undulating.
The only improvements that could be made were: The queues for picking up the Race number's were not very good - I had to wait for ages. (It would have been better if they were sent in the post) I found the finish confusing, as I went to race for the line, thinking the blue tape was the finish and it wasn't, we then had to turn a corner and carry on. Aside from these two points, it was a very good route and you got a nice t-shirt at the end!

In short: Lovely friendly local race
In full: Very good, well organised local race. It was really good to have youngster's taking part, and I was amazed at the speed of some of them! There was a very friendly atmosphere and it was a good way to spend a Bank Holiday morning. Would definitely recommend.

In short: It's the first time I have done this race and will hopefully be back next year!
In full: Very good 10K Race with lots of hills. I liked the part when you could see the runner's on the otherside of the road! There were plenty of supportive Marshal's. The vest was good and I really enjoyed the banana loaf at the end!

In short: Very challenging 5 mile race
In full: Tough challenging 5 mile race but really enjoyed it. It was very good value for money as I also done the 5K race. The t-shirt at the end was really nice. Good sized parking area, which made it easy. I was amazed at how many runner's there were on a Friday evening and would definitely run both races again.

In short: Lovely challenging Cross Country Race
In full: Brilliant tough Cross Country Course with a nice T Shirt and Medal. The doughnut at the end was also good. A very friendly atmosphere and it was nice to finish on the field and be able to cheer other people in.

In short: Very enjoyable Multi Terrain Race. The steps at mile 7 were a bit testy! There was good support from all the Marshall's. Would definitely do it again :-)

In short: Very challenging race
In full: A very good friendly race and well organised. A tough challenging course, that gives you a very good feeling of achievement at the end.
The bright yellow t-shirt will come in very useful for the dark evenings.
