In short: Only talking the Half Marathon here - 2nd time, +10 minute improvement
In full: Supurb event - although expensive. Made WE of it and stayed 2 nights at the Cricket Inn where it starts and ends. Would've come in quicker if I didnt miss a turning, which added 5 mins to my time! Brilliant place and lovely people, but for the price you expect a bit better organisation.

In short: have done this more than a few times - its a fave.
In full: One of my favourite races of the year, weather is normally good, its very well organised and friendly. Of course my best mate Soo lives in Eynsham too - so we make a full day of it if not a weekend! Leaves made some bits dodgy this year and the muddy bit as you come in to the end slowed you down when you should be going dor the finish hard! I got another PB, although I missed my goal AND I won my age category - so all in all an excellent event for me ;o).

In short: Well marshalled and nice tea and cakes
In full: Well organised & friendly marshalls. Undulating, but superb weather and enough water stations to keep you going easily. Well done WRR.

In short: One of my favourites. Its always hot, but was even hotter this time!
In full: This year there were extra loos, the field was fab and a BBQ was laid on after the race. A brilliant one for families to come to with a 2 mile fun run and after the main race smaller children's races on the field. It was very hot this year and hard work - but I love this one.

In short: undulating to verging on hilly, nice mix of rural and villages.
In full: Very friendly. Run past a couple of nice looking village pubs & get the support of the drinkers. Despite all the rain it was warm & dry for the race and only one major puddle at mile 2 which could be avoided. Good atmosphere at the start and end. Well done Cherwell!!

In short: Amazing, fantastic, wonderful, painful, and still grinning!
In full: My 3rd FLM. Last year it was miserable weather but support was still fantastic. This year same brilliant support, organisation, atmosphere... I got a PB too coming in at 3:38:23. Legs are very sore - but I am still on cloud 9.
