In short: A good race with good PB potential, although I didn't manage a PB this year!
In full: Don't really see the point of running a Hampshire Championship 5 mile race alongside a 10k fun run with both races starting at the same time in the same place on 4 lanes of a track! Other than that I enjoyed this race and will do it again.

In short: A flat but not very interesting course. The old course was better. Don't see the need to ban ipods though as most of this race is off road. Excellent and friendly marrshalls.

In short: Fantastic race, great course, lots of friendly marshalls who filled my water bottle at every water station. Couldn't ask for more.
In full: Entered the marathon on a whim with a couple of weeks to go so no training but will be back again next year (with some training. Thoroughly enjoyable course although rather challenging in places. Well done to organisers and marshalls and everyone who helped to make the day so enjoyable.

In short: I did the 5k this year as I have been out since Feb with an injury.
In full: Despite being told at the beginning that there would be a lot of shouting and a lot of arrows for the 5k turn off - there was none. If there was, they were hidden by the spectators!!! One marshall apparently telling us where to go for the 5k. Only realised I had gone wrong when I reached the 5k marker for the 00k race and then had to run back up the hill!! I was not the only onw. Would have been in the prizes if this had been more clearly marked. A shame as this is a good race.

In short: This race should have been cancelled.
In full: Couldn't get there as roads had not been gritted. Unless you live fairly close to Dunsfold it was impossible to get to. There was no information on the website and feel that I have wasted rather a lot of money on something that should have been cancelled. Also entered my daughter into the 3k and she was very disappointed not to be able to get there. Needs better information in future.

Still they made a fiar bit of profit from people not being able to turn up!!
