In short: nice small race
In full: A nice race on a flat course apart from the motorway bridge.

Main problem is the start, everyone funnels through a narrow gate where they had cunningly placed a platics case to try an trip you. The race should start on the main road.

In short: Everyone shopuld do this race
In full: Only quible was that the car park had changed from lst year and we got lost trying to find it. It was also a long walk from the start, fine for the runners but more effort for famillies.
Roads were closed so completely car free.

In short: very nice race
In full: My first time at this race and will be back next year. A proper small friendly village race. Good facillities, very well marshalled, I did not see a car on the circuit. No real hills.

In short: unique race
In full: The slope out of thetunnel is manageable, it is the small climb immediately after the tunnel that is a killer.

Very well organised this year with the exception of the toilet shortage at the start.

The chip meant that it was not a huge crush at the start.

In short: very enjoyable
In full: Found the race very friendly and enjoyed it. As some one who only trains on the flat the rise between the 6 & 7k went on far too long! The weather before the event made the field a quagmire in places causing problems with the parking.

In short: Very well organised, scenery in the middle a bit dull but worth it to run over the bridge. Disapointing number of runners considering the effort the organisers put in.
