In short: Very good race for such a small village
In full: Very enjoyable race. One steepish hill and a climb to the finish but otherwise fine. Good surfaces underfoot. Would be great if they could achieve their limit of 100 runners. A few
adverts placed around Salisbury would probably help.

In short: The starting area was exceptional but surely there is somewhere in Bradford-On-Avon to run without these massive hills.
In full: A good first run by the organisers although I agree with the lack of signs from the car park.
The setting for the start and finish are perfect and most of the run is great but the two hills are killers. I always feel you should run to enjoy it not to kill yourself.Take out one of the hills and I would be back otherwise I would prefer to run somewhere else.

In short: well organised with an early start which is great
In full: First time I have run this race but I will certainly do it again. Always good to have an early start at this time of year.Great to have the results so quickly aswell. I was amazed to see that the person who finished behind me had the same surname. Quite a coincidence.

In short: Not bad for a first attempt, I am sure it will be better next year
In full: Firstly can I say that the reviews for this race are being added to the Summer Solstice race which is a completely different event.
There were a few organisation issues such as signposts to the car park lacking;unable to hear the young lady at the start despite the microphone;and a medal in the goody bag after I had just been given one.Having said that the marshalls were great, the route was nice and flat but slightly boring and the atmosphere was fine.
Thanks to all involved for putting on the event.Any comments are intended to be helpful rather than critical.

In short: One of the best 10ks I have run. I am looking forward to next years already.
In full: My first time at this event and i must say it is brilliant. I know good weather always helps but the organisation, the marshalls, the route, the paper weight at the end they all added up to a great race. Thanks very much to all who were involved in making it work so well.

In short: A great course in beautiful surroundings helped by lots of sunshine.
In full: The start was a bit chaotic. Everybody just milling around not knowing which way we were going to run. Never heard anybody say GO!
However it was a very enjoyable course helped by the frost which hardened the ground. A bit dodgy on the icy downhill stretch but otherwise fine.A good start to the year.

In short: well organised run especially for a small village
In full: I am not keen on two lap 10ks but this one seems fine as though the two laps are different.It is well organised but the ladies seemed to have a very long queue for the loo.It is nice to get a christmas pudding but for the money I think the size is a bit stingy.
Thanks to all the organisers,and the marshalls for their hard work

In short: good day for running but somehow I felt there was no atmosphere
In full: although the route is quite scenic it is also pretty boring with long straight stretches between hedges with no sign of life at all. Good cakes at the end and very well organised

In short: A very good race which attracts more runners every year.
In full: Well organised by Ludo at Salisbury Fire Station. There is so much hard work involved and as a local I would like to say thanks to all who help out to make it possible for us runners to have such a great event.

In short: well organised race with potential for PB
In full: Friendly race with tea, cakes and sandwiches provided in the school afterwards. Interesting course with mix of scenery and only one short hill.Good quality t-shirt provided before the start but personally I would prefer a cheaper entry fee and a cheap medal.
