In short: Well organised and flat

In short: Hot and Hilly

In short: another great park run event

In short: Quick- One for the PB Hunters

Nice rereshment too.

In short: One for the speed merchants
In full: This is a quick course with plenty of long straights so you can get into a good rhythm. Well organised and I was also surprised at the number of friendly locals shouting support.

In short: Fun day out
In full: Pretty quick course on a dry day. Cobbles round the city were pretty slippery and a few too many sharp corners for my liking. But overall it was well organised and a quality Mizuno t shirt at the finish.

In short: Windy but welcoming
In full: It was way too windy to post a decent time but on another day there is definite PB potential. Well organised and a friendly bunch, I am sure the event will grow.
