In short: A great way to start Sunday. Well organised and quick.
In full: Mostly flat. Encouraging marshalls and a reasonable number of spectators. I'm sure the final little slope got steeper on the 2nd lap but it was a fun race and I'm very happy with a new PB! Thank you Fleet and Crookham AC

In short: Tough hills but a great run and wonderful support and great organisation
In full: Excellent organisation - from the friendly welcome to the pre- race blessing ,the supportive marshalls and locals and the enthusiastic commentary at the end.
The hills are tough ( in the middle and again at the end) but the scenery is glorious and it's great to finish!

In short: Excellent run. Well organised and friendly
In full: A really friendly crowd made a big difference to the day. An eternal hill slowed things down but getting to the top without stopping made me feel like I'd achieved something!. Well done to the organisers

In short: Excellent race . Well organised and good support despite the rain
In full: A good course with one or two hills but flat enough for PB territory. Well organised with very friendly marshalls and plenty of support out throughout the course.

In short: Two energy sapping hills, challenging woodland trails and a great view over Hurstbourne when you emerge from the woods. Challenging but fun.

In short: An excellent way to start half term week - a really enjoyable run
In full: Very good organisation, lovely scenery and friendly support. One or two upward stretches but generally a good course for a near beginner like me . well done to reading roadrunners and all the helpers. Next year I might even try the 20 mile version!

In short: Some very tough (and long) hills but an excellent event that is well worth doing. Fancy dress competition adds to the atmosphere
