In short: A great day out.
In full: A lovely rural run finishing in town by the cathedral.A bit of up and down at start and finish but flat inbetween where you can get the hammer down.Cracking good race.

In short: Challenging course makes for a really enjoyable race.
In full: I really enjoy this well thought out undulating course.Always remember to leave a bit in the tank for the long incline at the end and you'll be fine.The bag was a bit of a let down but please don't start giving out medals instead as they just end up at the back of the draw.

In full: Don't be put off by the scenery score.I don't know about you but I never take much notice when racing anyway,I'm too busy dying on my a**e.This is a flat course with PB all over it and a cracking good day out for 17 quid.Bostin.

In short: Has the makings of a very special race.
In full: GOOD POINTS.I think the course was good,generally flat.One big hill at mile 2 and miles 10-12 were undulating.Although not really big inclines at 10-12 i was tired at this point and have to admit I was blowing bubbles.But with less than 3 miles to go and a downhill finish to the end there are a lot worse courses out there.
I would also like to give a mention to the toilets.How many starts are spoilt because of lack of attention to this detail?The 4 way mens urinal block was a good idea.A quick no hassle stop for the men that seemed to keep the ladies que for cubicles down.No need to hide in the bushes or miss out on a warm up.
Good finish area.Masseuers,blister treatment,stalls and instant race times were some of the nice touches.
BAD POINTS.
One of the strangest starts I've ever seen.Not enough width on a short pathway caused congestion,amplified by then turning a corner to cross the start.Saw two guys run down a bank and jump off a wall!Can't understand why anyone thought that this was good place to start a 1000+ runners.
Also a slight concern the level crossing doesnt come down.Those trains had better bloody well wait.

In short: Fast and flat.
In full: Only one problem with a scenic fast course like this.It attracted loads of good runners who kept overtaking me,the swines.Crowd were excellent though,thanks for the encouragement guys I was dieing out there.Bagged me pb and now have 2 weeks off work,happy days.
