In short: Must try forest trail - fab for newbies!
In full: Excellent choice for anyone looking to go off road for the first time. Friendly well organised race with good forest trail course - not too hardcore for newbies but a refreshing change from road racing. No pressure for slowcoaches and very supportive marshals - especially the children with horns and whistles! Will definitely add this to my calendar as a must do. Thanks Warminster - this is as good as your 10 miler and thanks too to the rugby club for the comfy race HQ!

In short: Just as a local run should be...
In full: Just as a local run should be... friendly, well organised, proceeds to charity, excellent cakes, a comfy village hall to start from. bluebells were long gone, but a nice varied interesting course nonetheless. This would be an excellent step up race for those wanting something beyond a 10k - a gentle introduction to trail running and really supportive marshals and first aid team making all welcome... well done Pewsey RC and thanks for all the hard work.

In short: One of the better years
In full: Done this a number of times & everytime in the past there seems to have been some organisational mess up!! This year wasn't too bad in comparison except finish area was a bit chaotic. No medium t-shirts left, which is pretty inexcusable given that there are no entries on the day, not all entrants turned up & everyone puts on their form what size they want. lots more loos this year, which was good. good crowd support. lets get more bands on the run, as they really build the atmosphere.
if they could have a more welcoming & less chaotic finish & avoid the mess ups of the past, then this race would really be up there.

In short: Room for more at the back!
In full: decent race, well organised, especially as it was the first running. Got a little bit "buzzed" by traffic at the back - inconsiderate motorists who treat Wiltshire's country roads as a racetrack. be good to have some more slower runners so there's safety in numbers!!

2010 Salisbury Fire Station Half-Marathon

In short: Slightly dull route & another water station would have helped
In full: Slightly dull route & speeding traffic made life unpleasant for those of us at the back. Especially disliked the last mile as had to stop to cross a busyish road and then run past finish on pavement on a loop to make up the mileage. Shame race doesn't show Salisbury off better - but guess this would be expensive if road closures needed...
