In short: Hilly Course
In full: For ME that was NOT a NICE RACE and there where too many Hills on the Course and there could of been some electrolyte drink drinks at the half way stage, even some of the Marshalls did not know where the baggage area was either.

In short: a Good Race
In full: did not see the finish line and had to ask a marshall, i did the Berlin Marathon 4 weeks ago which was disastrous for me and therefore did this Race without proper Training and there was no pressure on me to get a good timings. Everything else was extremely good and therefore i will be back next year to do Better

In short: good course
In full: the Start line is a bit hectic as there are over 1000 runners going down a small narrow road, also the marker guides ie Runners sub 40 runners sub 45 signs where a bit to too close to each other.
The course is a bit Hilly but that is not pointed out in the Runner's world events profile, but overall it's a good course and would do it again

In short: superb race
In full: this is now my second time i have done this race and its a superb but yet challenging race this is because of the MUD and road conditions and i am surprised that nobody fell into the Drink (the slimy water) or lose their shoes,but i did see a few people fall over and loads of muddy legs, The Course was (is) WELL marshalled and great to come back to the village hall for a nice cup of tea (shear Bliss) and this year we had as a Prize was a Mug Very Useful. I'll be back next year

In short: extremely good course
In full: The portland 10 mile race has a extremely good course and loads of hills to play with.
The Marshalling and water Stations where exactly where i wanted them to be and really glad for the water too as it was a HOT morning, the prize was a nice embroided towel and lovely colour too and i would like to return back next year to see if i can beat my timings.
