In short: Perfect Sunday morning run
In full: I would echo the views of the other comments here - a thoroughly enjoyable run, expertly organised with friendly marshalls and a cracking route.

What more could you want?

In short: One for next year - the weather cannot be worse!
In full: An excellent race that is highly recommended. Challenging route over the Mendips, well marshalled and great cakes afterwards. What more could you ask for?

A very big thank you to the organisers and the marshalls, we runners had it easy compared with the weather conditions they had to endure.

In short: Excellent organisation, good course and fantastic cakes afterwards!
In full: A great race organised by Yeovil Running club and the local Rotarians.

Good, friendly atmosphere, challenging course, spot on organisation, plenty of encouragement from the marshalls, and home made cakes afterwards - the perfect way to spend a Saturday morning!

Thank you to everyone involved in this, and thanks to the landowners for giving permission to use the private land.

I'll be back next year.

In short: What if everyone had turned up?
In full: I did the race, and agree with the comments about the total lack of organisation at the start and finish. One point - if there were 16,000 entrants, and only 10,000 finishers, what woudl have happened if the missing 6,000 had turned up? There was severe congestion at the start and finish as it was!
A total shambles.
