In short: Challenging enough and well organised
In full: First time I have entered this run, although judging by the number of club runners it is a popular event. Entry and start are in two different places, which is no bad thing as the entry is in the Cricket Club with warmth, showers and toilets whereas the start is obviously in the open.

Good course, almost completely off road through pleasant woodlands. Hardly a flat section on it (apart from the bike track), and the hills were all slippery yet all possible to run.

Encouraging and regular marshalls, good signage and co-operative dog walkers all made for a fine event. I don't imagine it's PB material but for a challenging run around a part of London I didn't know could accommodate such pleasant scenery it was well worth doing. Home made cake, tea and a medal were all bonuses, as was the finish times posted online by the afternoon in a searchable format.
