2009 The Run '09 - Northamptonshire (10K)
| | Overall score | | 40% | | Would you do it again? | | Maybe | | | | Details: | | Scenery | | 60% | | PB potential | | 60% | | Atmosphere | | 40% | | Organisation | | 20% | | Value | | 40% | | Beginner-friendliness | | 60% |
In short: Much was promised but disappointingly did not deliver!
In full: The course in it's self was fine but the lengthy delay at the start with no audible explanation was not good. The bottle neck at the end was also another problem. It was chaotic. The goody bag wasn't. Why promise all of these things then not deliver? This run has been hyped for months and sadly was a disappointment. On the good side the music in the market and the drummers further along towards the finish lifted my spirits. Sadly this did not begin to make up for the chaotic organisation.

In short: The race was very challenging and chaotic.
In full: The race was challenging I didn't mind the hills they were the least of the problem it was all the cars cones marshalls and other runners it felt very chaotic to me and I found it difficult to concentrate. Just felt on edge al of the race. The marshalls were very encouraging though. My T shirts is way to big and I don't think I will do the race again. I just never felt safe.
