In short: Great course, great value, very impressive cake spread!
In full: This was a really fun run, 15 miles felt more like 13!! The organisers went all out on the tea and cakes front and the mug/goody bag were nice touches. Only complaint would be that the map I was given at the beginning kind of unnerved me as it was about 4 pages of double sided A4 stapled together..not what you want to carry for 15 miles. A map isn't really necessary - just a couple more marshals perhaps and some extra tape/signs. But really, it was pretty hard to take a wrong turning! Highly reccommend it for a jolly Sunday run!

In short: Really good course - thoroughly enjoyed it - but no lucazade sponsors!
In full: Only criticism would be the lack of lucazade which I have come to expect of the larger events...must have been pampered too much in the past. Will remember to bring my own next time!

In short: pricey and not exactly scenic, but the great atmosphere and organisation make it very worthwhile.

In short: Gentle uphill climb for first 1-2 km, some rough track, but otherwise smooth and flat. Good for beginners.
