In short: 3 races in one morning - something for everyone.
In full: I ran the half and thoroughly enjoyed it. Pancake flat course, plenty of marshalls and a nice run in along the prom. Finishers received a T-shirt, gym bag & medal.

Would suggest the prom needs looking at in future - tourists seemed unaware there was a race going on, could part of it be coned off?

Well done Mablethorpe!

In short: Top organisation and outstanding value
In full: A very well organised race and really good value (for £6 you get a great race, a long sleeved shirt and sausage & chips!)
A good turn out this year to tackle the tough challenging course over some lovely countryside.
Thanks Wolds Vets.

In short: Very well organised, another record entry with a good mix of runners.
In full: Superb organisation, small improvements year on year have transformed this race.
Flat fast course means plenty of PB's.
Loads of clubs represented (probably worth introducing team prizes?).

Only gripe is that it took 25 mins to get out of Woodhall due to the sheer number of cars all being sent down a narrow country lane.

In short: Brilliant organisation, tough course, glorious weather.
In full: Those hills don't get any easier, but what goes up thankfully comes down!
Well done to Stamford Striders for top class organisation and thanks to very enthusiastic marshalls.

In short: A course almost guaranteed to give you a negative split (2nd half faster)
In full: Great race, well organised/marshalled.
First half quite challenging due to off road section & hills, but the last 6 miles are very fast.
Tea & biscuits much appreciated.
Thank you Sleaford Striders
