In short: Good event and well organised. Value is based upon fact I got over 60's rate. Only downside is if you finish near back you cannot get XL tee shirt. Bearing in mind if you need that size you are potentially XL in that position it is a bdisappointmen

In short: A well organised race with good support, excellent marshalling.
In full: Definite PB potential- if you've never done a 9.5. Otherwise no way. The hills have hills on them. It just goes up and up. Bt I loved it, despite being one of my hardest ever.

In short: Excellently organised. Much nicer than when it was all road.
In full: One of my favourite 10k races, apart from Clarken Coombe, excellently organised. I always have someone to chat to, they call him the "Back Marker Marshal" (why is it always a "he". Thanks Mike for getting me round.

In short: Excellent organisation and better than expected.
In full: All appeared to go well, and the procedures at the end made it even better, no queueing and everything went seamlessly through water, to removal of timing chips to goody bag collection. A definite one for the future.
