In short: Bloody hard!
In full: Well organised as usual from Kiwi Classic events, very informal, friendly atmosphere. As usual, the event was a bit different in that up very steep hills and down very steep ones too! Good day, good weather, a fine run.

In short: Good scenic run
In full: Quite a nice run in a hidden part of the world. Quite a small turnout was reasonably well marshalled and a nice sunny morning helped make the event run a quite nice run. The steps and the hills added a decent twist to the day. Only slight grumble is that it wasn't cheap

In short: Firm but fair
In full: Nice morning's run in the more picturesque parts of Stockport. The sun came out as well which helped may the race that bit better. Reasonably well organised but ended with a daft hill to contend with as per the offerton 10k from a few weeks prior. All in all, a very good run

In short: Good fun but tough at times
In full: First time racer on this course and must admit I enjoyed it a lot. Very well organised and marshalls were very motivating. One hill was very tough and only slight grumble would be the slightly repetitive nature of doing the course three times. Overall though very well organised and good fun for a Wednesday evening. Thanks to all.

In short: Nice views - bloody hard work
In full: Very interesting race - very slow and congested to start with as the unexpected climb to the top of the hill but then evened out to some fantastic views. Very charming run but pretty tough

In short: Great for beginners
In full: The 10k was my first race since getting a taste for sore knees. Nice leisurely race, bit busy at the start but evened out 2k+. Further on, it turned beautiful as I ran past the lake. Nicely organised with a good turnout.
