In short: Enjoyable race with definite PB potential In full: After a bit of a bumbling start the race was very well organised, and supported. The course would suit the beginner and seasoned runner alike. The start and finish of the run in set in the pictureque market square which adds to the atmosphere of the event. Plenty of water stations en-route which helped in the hot sun. This is the second year in a row on running this race. I fully expect to participate again next year. Date of review: August 10, 2009

In short: Well organised challenging race. Very Undulating. In full: Fortunately with the early start (09:30) the temperature was quite cool and perfect for running. On a hot day this race would have been unbearable with all the hills. Don't bank on a PB for this run. Good all round organisation with other fun run activities going on as well. The only frustration was the apparant lack of decent signage from the motorway to the event. Nice T-shirt and 'interesting' goody bag. Crisps, drink and fruit are welcome. Random bathroom accessories, somewhat questionable. See you next year ! Date of review: June 30, 2009

In short: Excellent race. In full: Completed this for the second year running, and this is by far the hardest race in my calander. Don't expect a PB, just a very challegning, well organised and support run. Date of review: June 15, 2009
