In short: Back 5k a real challenge in todays heat.....
In full: Great organisation all the way from car parking to finish,friendly encouraging marshals, as read very fast first 5k but a definite sting in the tail. Very hot day and my only gripe would be a small bottle of water half way because I don,t no anyone that can drink from a cup running.Well done Cobra I will try again next year....

In short: Not for the faint hearted....
In full: Very warm day for this run which did not do me any favours the hill between 6 and 7 mile did me after that it was an amble more than a run.Lots of local support along the route and vocal marshals lovely scenery four water stations and nice big downhill finish on to the racecourse.

In short: Fast out...Slow back..
In full: Shame that this had to be rearranged as field was a lot smaller.The conditions in places were a little tricky but an excellent briefing at the start made everyone aware.Had it been a full turnout toilets may have been a concern but today was fine.First seven miles down and over the bridge was a breeze but you have to dig in on the back five plenty of support along the way, vocal marshals nice t shirt and a medal.

In short: Well worth the triip....
In full: A bit of a problem with the parking due to not being able to go on the field,but having got a space on the verge up the road all was well.
Very busy venue with swimming,fencing and the triathlon finishing but no clear route to guide you to race registration,that aside a most enjoyable run cut a little short due to the weather as explained at the race brief,very fast first mile and a fairly slower following three with a decent into the town after.Plenty of people around for the last mile and a half.
Chip timing and a medal all for under a fiver.
