In short: Great race with loads of support all the way. Thanks to the marshals who were very encouraging all the way round.
In full: This is the second time I have done this one. Seemed busier to me this time so the word is spreading - this is a great race to do. Plenty of support from marshals and crowds alike. Topped up my sun tan nicely, so that's a bonus!

In short: Great atmosphere. Very friendly.
In full: Great atmosphere. Very friendly. Starts amongst the stalls for the village fete, which was great. Excellent organisation and marshalls very encouraging (thanks). Out and back course, out uphill, back downhill. A t-shirt that fits! Definitely will be back next year.

In short: Flat course with a few minor inclines. pity about the wind in your face for the first few miles!
In full: First time for this one and nice to do one so close to home. Organisation and race more relaxed, makes a change from the big organized races. Helped 'she who must be obeyed' round for her PB, so I collected a few brownie points! Hopefully they will last long enough until next year's race.

In short: Run this one a few times. Doesn't get any easier! Could do with a goody bag at the end to ease the pain!
