In full: I'm someone who does many races throughout the calendar year and travel a fair way to do the race. I think for a first event this was an excellent start. I didn't run it expecting a PB, after all it wasn't meant be that kind of race. Great friendly welcome, great weather and a challenging but fair course with great views. In short I loved it and I'm sure it will grow over the coming years.

In full: Bit of a trek to get to on a Monday night but worth the effort. Course was as expected mainly flat and although not traffic free, very few cars come this way. Did a PB ta boot so very please. This is a Gloucestershire county road race so attracts mainly club runners but you should not be put off if your a more social runner. Good event.

In full: I do wonder what some people expect. It was my first Bath Half and I've done a few. Well organised and definetly not hilly. Can't understand where people get that one from, A few short inclines and lots of speed long down hill stretches. Great support and loved the 3 piece Jazz rockers out in the sticks. No complaints.

In full: My first go at this race, but I had a good idea it wasn't going to be easy! Can't knock the facilities or organisation from Chelt Harriers and volunteers. Tough climbs after 4K but adds to the challenge:-).

In short: Organisation was not as good this year but we live in difficult time and losing your main spoonsor close to the event made it difficult. New race committee needs to do there home work. However I will be back and I'm sure it will be back to standard n

In short: If you didn't do it , why not?
In full: Throughly enjoyable friendly event, run by a first class community club. Well organised, just right size for midweek event. The course was very runner friendly and I will definately be there next year (may even do the Hill Half!!). Not knocking the big charity gigs but you don't have to be national, corprate charity type event to be enjoyable. 10 out of 10 for me
