In short: Excellent organisation , beautiful scenery in Clumber park. great marshals
In full: My second trip to this event and I doubt it will be my last . Its well organised, the course has some hilly areas but nothing too daunting.The marshals and support from them are excellent.One puzzle for me though,for a race which didnt recommend the use of headphones, how is it a man was allowed to run with a pit bull on a leash ?

In short: Third time at this event , IMO organisation lacking from previous years .
In full: Third time at this event,in my opinion the organisation was lacking from previous years . My Bib didnt not exist at check in,went to information ,lady said my email confirmation was not enough proof of who I was.She sent me away to come back for a spare bib after 940 . Returned at 945 ...lots of others waiting for numbers,not sure why. Lady at desk was a bit terse with everyone I thought and told one guy who had no pins, 1) he should have brought his own and 2)put the number in your pocket and show it at the end.Maybe this lady should have been informed of the info on the Runner info page -Registration
"If you have entered online then you
need to collect your race number on
race day. The registration opens at
8am. Please bring your email
confirmation with you when collecting
your race number. There is an enquiry
desk if you have any problems or
questions about the event. There is also
a supply of pins to attach your race
number to the front of your running top." Sorry Ron,but while I was at the desk 4 people were told you had run out of pins! Water station at three didnt seem to exist ... I was waved past the table on the right and told it was on the left ...This race is very reasonably priced , the marshals are pretty good and it is a flat course with PR potential. Will I be back again ...not sure .
