In short: Great PB potential if the weather holds out.
In full: Very flat course, and quick if its not a windy day. The laps and the scenary aren't the most inspiring but the organisation was excellent and the supporters were great. A great PB course.

In short: Great organisation, shame about the traffic
In full: I ran this for the first time in 2007. The marshals wee out in force and provided sme good support, also putting on 2 water stations was a bonus for a 5 mile loop. Unfortunately though the traffic increased as the laps built up and I found it necessary to watch over my shoulder as I overtook some of the slower runners, and where the pavement was narow I had to run in the road to get by people. All in all though a nice undulating course, some fast bits some road and some quite parts. A nice alternative from the Sunday run.

In short: Fantastic route, very fast rolling course
In full: Well organised race, once out of Watford the scenery is lovely and the roads quiet and winding. The route takes you up in the first half and down for the second making for a fast last few miles. Great PB potential.
