In short: Great local race with a lovely atmosphere
In full: 3rd time i've done this (I think), still amazed that a decent t-shirt is given out at the end!

Cold and wet this year but it did not seem to make much of a difference to the atmosphere

In short: Cold but flat and a welcoming, inclusive atmosphere
In full: Exposed to the wind! Flat, quick course which would be great in Summer but still good in zero degrees Winter chill. Lots of lovely people spectating and running.

In short: Nice atmosphere, good field of runners, scenic run, great marshals
In full: Thankyou SLH - a good run on a Summer's evening over the scenic North Downs. How do you do this for £3? Slightly challenging run with varied slopes and knobbly underfoot to keep you interested.

In short: Quicker than expected...organised very well...plenty of dark humour...FUN

In short: Great organisation - fantastic charity support
In full: Didn't enjoy the first mile - too many people with hopeful times to dodge. Last 2 miles into the wind were horrid. Nice run, though.

In short: I must have been mad! Loved it though....
In full: Fast first mile lulls you into a false sense of security as you are then treated to hills, mud up to your waist and water up to your neck! Fantastic fun.
