In short: Undulating?....I'd say hilly!
In full: 4k downhill at breakneck speeds then 6k slogging back uphill!! A great course,caught quite a few first timers to this race, out (including myself).Definately not a P.B course but the organisers had all the best intentions , well done everyone!!

In short: It could have been a contender....
In full: Everything about this race is excellent apart from the route. Or, to be more specific the fact that for a good 50% of the course (run over 2 laps) you are confined to running on a narrow pavement, so passing is a night mare. there was the option to step into the road, however it will have to be a braver man than I to step into the mid morning weekend traffic of the A40!!
All in all an enjoyable day, but definately not for a PB Chaser.

In short: an avrage race
In full: having run most 10k races within a 30mile radius of ox18 in the last 4 months, nothing about this race stands out. Nothing bad, and nothing special....apart from a PB, but this race could be so much more...a t-shirt, medal, mug....commemerative jam spoon.....anything would help!!!

In short: glorious race yet again,well done!
In full: Another successful race or the hook norton harriers. Was a tad confused when the results came out tho. according to my garmin i ran a (poor) 45m59s my race number being 603. in the results I'm down as a 48m11s with a race number of 205! Strange, but still a race that I'll definately enter again.once again well done...oh and the goody bag as ever was spot on!!

In short: a suprisingly hilly , but quick paced race
In full: perfect weather, not many runners and a challenging hilly route through very scenic villages and woodlands.3 very well placed water stations and plenty of marshalls and spectators cheering us on along the way. I got a PB for 10M and also beat my PB for 10k and 12k so all in all....a very enjoyable (but fast and hilly...)outing.Definately a must for next year.

In short: well done...got it right this year!!
In full: Brilliant this year.Looks like the organiser took all points raised last year and went the extra mile to ensure this years pinewood 10k rates amongst the best race I've ran in the past 18months. Superb morning out even if the weather was scorching! A new P.B to boot.Cheers again to steve for organising a truly memorabl race.
