In short: Another cracker of an event
In full: I dug out my race comments from last year...."Another race for the calender. Great event with good numbers of runners, flat n quick course which is traffic free. I liked the switchbacks - can see the faster runners go past & cheer on the runners behind. Marshals were just great & where possible good support from the locals. Medal & a mars bar to finish with - simple. I`m up for next year. Thanks Maidenhead Athletics for a job well done."

My thoughts have not changed - an excellent event. Thanks guys.

In short: A good solid event - a true bargin of an event.
In full: Excellent event, challenging course but with the advantage of doing 15 or 21 miles. Bargin of an event. Water stations were well placed. Well done & many thanks to MABAC and to all those who helped put on this event esp those two at the jelly baby station. Many thanks.

In short: An excellent event - something for everyone
In full: Something for everyone - fast or slow - it doesn`t really matter. It comes with pacers, huge number of supporters along the way, bands playing, plenty of water & energy drink stops, and a great stadium finish - don`t forget the goodie bag & medal. Despite the large number of runners it`s was well organised. Free bus service to & from Reading - mind you need to stand in line thou. Well done - I`ll be back.

In short: A quick, scenic course. With a couple of corrections then it will be a cracker of an event.
In full: A good flat, quick scenic course. Worth an early year PB attempt. With a couple of small corrections - mainly at the start then this really would be a cracker of an event. The rain was a shock compared to last year`s event and didn`t help before the start. All said and done still a good event. Thanks for all your hard work. Roll on next year.

In short: Nice event, a couple of oversights but nothing major
In full: A good event, ok the couple of mistakes (toilets & water) were as mentioned an oversight but apart from that a good event. Interesting course - up, up, up, down, along and in. Good finishing area (great baggage collection) with a cool down walk back to the parking area. Second time there & enjoyed it as much as the first. Same time next year?

In short: Nice countryside run with lots of mud
In full: A nice route around Arundel, along the river and into the countryside. I thought it was well marked with some nice view points along the way. Water stations were welcoming. More than likely I`ll be back for some more in years to come. Good one - thanks.
