In short: very well organised. more support on the course than most races. a bit too hilly for a pb but a good workout

In short: a fast course - i got a pb! but there is a hilly mile coming out of lacock. Bit expensive but worth it for a pb. Needs signposts from the main car parks in melksham-i thought i'd miss the start!

In short: A race you'll never forget! Great fun! I normally enter races where I can go for a PB so this was quite a departure-so the promise of a special sub-60 t-shirt was a great idea and had that PB feeling when I ended up creeping under the 60min barrier!

In short: I cramped at mile 14 so personally this was a disaster but as a race its fantastic. The 3rd best I've experienced (GNR=best, Berlin=2nd)

In short: I really enjoyed this race.
In full: the scenery was stunning. I thought the course was marked well. Some of the hills were quite soul destroying but the marshalls were very encouraging. Only improvements would be to add 1 or 2 more water stations and I thought the start wasn't very safe (very narrow and uneven)- maybe start half a mile up on the road? I'm being picky though - it was great.

In short: it's too hilly to produce many pb's but as a genuine race it's a great one. the support on eccleshall rd is fantastic and thats the most clapping i've heard on bramall lane all year!

In short: Very well run race. If you're doing regular 10mile races then the hills mean this won't be a pb event but a great race still

In full: great race. pb's would be easy on this course (if not as windy as it was this year).
Also results were online by the time i got home!

In short: Everyones being negative so I thought I'd say I enjoyed it and ran a pb. Its a local 10k not the great north run and the facilities/ organisation are what you should expect. why do you need water stops when its 7degrees and its only 10k?
