In short: Flat, fast & well organised.
In full: Improved on last year with more toilets and a better finish, quite a few twists and turns but that couldn't be helped.
Where were the energy drinks stations? There were plenty last year. Fast results service, lots of support, well done to all.

In short: 10/10
In full: First time for me and I'll definately be back, hot and sunny but with a cool breeze in the open and plenty of shade in the woods. The descents were fantastic but you kept dreading the inevitable ascent the other side. Excellent friendly marshalls and plenty of loud support, well done to all.

In full: very hilly and quite hot made this a very testing course, well organised and a lovely atmosphere. ran the 10m and there was plenty of water in just the right places, the hills seemed to never end, kept looking for a flat bit but not many. really nice day out for all.

In short: Great race (again)
In full: 3rd time for me here and I'll keep coming back, the course is great, weather was perfect and the marshalls & water people were excellent. Not much support around the course, but thats only to be expected with the area covered. Really good feel to this race, lots of hand shaking at the finish etc.
Well done.

In short: well organised small race
In full: Great organisation with excellent marshalls and plenty of support. Starting behind the 1/2 marathon runners was quite beneficial especially up the hill. Well done to all, except the local council who have put this lovely race in doubt for the future due to excessive regulations, what a shame.

In full: Always very well organised, a good challenging course. The start was moved back a bit this year apparently due to previous years being a bit short. Really well supported,all round the course, and great marshall etc. Hope they can keep this race going if Cadburys does close.

In short: Great addition the racing calendar
In full: Timing zones worked well, better than at the half marathon last year. Great organisation, marshalls super and excellent support.
I entered on line and paid about £25, which seemed a bit expensive, but when you look at what you get I'll do it again.
Loads of toilets, flat & fast traffic free course, great baggage storage & happy helpers. Not much of a goody bag though.
