In short: Best organised race of the year
In full: Clearly organised by runners, for runners. Nice, flat course if looking for a good time. Amazingly well organised, better than virtually any other race I do in the year (maybe about 10 others). Will be back for number 3!!

2011 City of Lincoln 10K
| | Overall score | | 60% | | Would you do it again? | | Maybe | | | | Details: | | Scenery | | 60% | | PB potential | | 80% | | Atmosphere | | 80% | | Organisation | | 40% | | Value | | 40% | | Beginner-friendliness | | 80% |
In short: They've made it too big and the city can't cope with that many people.
In full: Have done this the last 3 yrs and loved it. Was worried this yr when I saw they had around 5,000 entries and my fears were right when there were massive tailbacks to get into lincoln, no parking (had to jump out and leave my wife to find a parking space to avoid missing the start), delayed start (pretty normal for this race!) and congestion for the fist 3/4 kms. Won't do it again unless they reduce the numbers, as for expanding to 7,000 i can only imagine the chaos if they do! They are in danger of permanently ruining a good "little" race. Great medal (rare these days and I prefer it to another t-shirt which wouldn't get used), but awful "goody" bag.

Oh and it's a great run, challenging but brilliant.
