In short: Faultless organisation by Riverside Runners, once again
In full: Great race if a bit on the warm side (who would have thought this summer). Great local scenery and impeccable organisation.

The best race T-shirt designn I've ever had.

Please please have it again next year.

In short: A good race in nice scenery
In full: I have done this race for the second time, and really enjoyed it, but as said by another runner, why is it taking so long to release results? Especially for such a small field.

In short: A great first edition
In full: Admittedly there were a few niggles, but nothing to ruin the day and nothing that cannot be sorted for next year. The course is nice and the support was nothing short of amazing in the conditions.

Quite frankly, in this weather, you would have been hard pushed to guess it was a first edition. It has the bones of a cracking event.

In short: Well organised, nice race, friendly considering the size
In full: I have run this for the first time today, and apart from the scenery, which is what it can be due to the loaction, this is a very pleasant race. I will probably be back.

In short: A nice little race
In full: I did this one because it is local, and it was good.
I wouldn't say it was PB potential though as a lot of the course is on farm tracks, sometimes poorly surfaced. Makes for good scenery but slows you down. The other drawback is obviously zero support out in the fields, but if you like running in the countryside, it is a good race.

In short: Fun race on a scenic course with small and friendly field
In full: This is what local races should be about: Entertaining course, well organised, friendly, unpretentious.
No, it is not flat, but unless you're after a PB, that makes it more fun.
