In short: Good well organised 10 Mile Race
In full: Another good job by Salisbury, well organisd, no parking problems and easy to find. Undulating course with a few small climbs to break things up. Scenic course with a nice finish on the track. Good T shirt momento and I got a little goody bag this year. Might possibly be better to start it an hour earlier as their were some minor problems with traffic, though this did not detract from the race. Went off too fast but cooled the pace by mile 2 and managed a P.B. Happy days :-)

In short: Well organised event over a challenging course
In full: After last years problems with the course and the bad weather it was good to see that all is well with what is a solid HRRL race. It's a tough course the hill at mile 8 especially, though it's a good course.

In short: Good, but uninspiring, race
In full: Given the loss or major changes to races in Hampshire it's good that this race has managed to survive but it's not the most interesting of courses.

In short: A Proper XC Race
In full: An excellent race again. Why anyone wants to spend a fortune on these quasi corporate XC races when Tadley Runners put on such a great race is beyond me. It was challenging this year after all the rain, very soft underfoot and the ditches were full to the brim with water; the last climb from the ditches was tough this year into the wind. Warm soup and a momento all for the great price of £8.00.

In short: Fast 5 Miler

In short: Another well organised race
In full: Really enjoyable race, if only it was on my doorstep then I could avoid the hell that is M3/M25 on a Friday Evening.

Well organised, great course, T-shirt (less said about the colour this year the better), chip timing, beer and burger available.

Great start to a weekend.

In short: Good Midweek 5k
In full: Always enjoy this race even with the twists and turns, dodgy marshalls and expensive price.

This year we had the rain which made all the turns that little bit more awkward.

It gets a little bit better organised every year - we even had ribbons for the medals this time!
