In short: A cracking 10k, well organised with good scenery and a fast course
In full: Did it for the first time in 2013 and loved it. Very much a course of two halves. The first is a multi- terrain undulating 5k, the second is a flat and fast 5k over Tarmac which doesn't quite make up (time wise) for the first but should none-the-less give you a good time, though not in the same league as the Bourton's or Eynsham's of the 10k world. A truly great atmosphere with helpful marshals and a nice goody bag et the end. Easily one of my favourite 10Ks.

In short: Great little 5 miler, well organised, fairly flat and fast. Not the best scenery for Cheltenham but you can't have everything.

In short: Cracking event, lovely scenery at the edge of the Cotswolds passing some pretty orchards en-route. Quite a long climb towards the end which goes on for about a mile but otherwise no serious hills. Great organisation with friendly marshalls.

In short: Great, fast, well organised race over a lovely smooth surface with the only minor drawbacks being that you are exposed to the elements and the scenery is naff.

In short: Cracking stuff. A great race in nearly every respect. However, the race material MUST remove any mention of momentos as there aren't any!

In short: Baldly organised and started an hour late! The race itself (once it actually started) was very good, though, with a great atmosphere and nice course. Liked the medal and T-shirt.

In short: Great race - a thoroughly enjoyable day.
In full: Good race, good orgainisation and lovely route. Cheeky little hill in the middle. Thought the diary as a momento was a bit naff, though.

In short: Good route, nice scenary. though the bit along the A40 isn't too good and the start is a bit cramped. Well organised and a good PB router.

In short: Lovely scenic route, bit hilly but with a long, straight downhill stretch at the end, just when you need it.d
