In short: Friendly, well organised and fun, if hillier than expected
In full: 1st time on this race and I will be back. Great organisation, friendly race, and liked the starter's stand up routine! Nice scenic course, but I never realised Garstang was so hilly.

In short: Best organisation yet
In full: 3rd time in this race, and the chip timing and change to finish made an already well organised race even better, grat T shirt too. Thoroughly enjoyed it, even though I got nowhere near the PB I was hoping for. Will be back next year.

In short: Great race, well organised and got a PB. Will be beack
In full: 1st time I've done this, but will not be the last. A good flat course with good scenery. Not as fast a time as I wanted, but got a PB even with a bad chest! So no complaints.

In short: Hot!
In full: Had set my heart on a PB here as it was so flat, but the heat took its toll! Well organised. I entered online and had no problems at all. Liked the fruit stop and plenty of water, but the water stops were a bit crowded, could do with longer tables. Great atmosphere too. Will do again.

In short: Really enjoyed it, well organised
In full: First race for 12 months and I really enjoyed it. Excellent organisation, some challenges but not a killer, and just missed PB by 7 seconds. Only complaint was cars leaving car park towards slower runners making them have to leap out the way.

In short: My first race, and enjoyed it enormously. Seemed well organised
In full: Nothing to compare to but enjoyed my first race. The organisation seemed great and the encouraging marshalls were appreciated by a newbie like myself. Was hillier than I expected so was a bit of a challenge for me as well.
