In short: Very nice
In full: Nice, fairly even course - basically just 3 circuits of a central bit of the park with no big hills.
I didn't get a medal??!!! The blurb on this site says there's a medal - I was upset about that!
The bag drop area is limited - we had motorbike helmets and jackets and these just wouldn't have fitted into a locker - luckily one of the water station guys let us leave our stuff under his table.
Still upset about there being no medal!!!!

In short: Erm... not quite a 10k!
In full: Well, to say I was bemused to have knocked over 5 minutes off my pb is an understatement! Definitely a couple of k short of a real 10k, but still a nice run in a lovely setting - quite flat, even course well-suited to a good, easy run out. Organisation was very smooth, girls at registration and bag-drop area very friendly and efficient, warm-up girls did a great job in adding to the atmosphere and getting everyone raring to go. Also marshalls round the course were fantastic - smiling and encouraging all the way. Thanks everyone for a nice event. Oh and yeah the breakfast hamper was a great idea!

In short: Pretty darn good
In full: Very welcoming atmosphere and nice, flat course. Could have done with another water station at the opposite end from the one station there was. Other than that, great. The goody bag at the end was good. And, you don't have to be gay to enjoy it! I'm not... yet! ;-)
