In short: Good Atmosphere, PB potential and jelly babies! In full: My first 10k for 9 years and was quite nervous for a week before the race. I thought i would stuggle to find the hanger to start with as the entry letter tells you the postcode (if using sat nav) does not lead you to the event but the instructions given were clear and found it very easily. The day was quite chilly and the start was further away from the car park as i had thought so i did my warm up on the way which was not a problem. one the race got going the marshels were very helpful and encouraging, as well as managing the traffic well. The course is marked well with KM markers and this helps especially on the second lap to plan your run in. Not to sure about the finish line being on grass though but thats the only gripe. A well organised event with plenty of water at the end along with jelly babies. Also good bacon baps and welcome cup of tea. WELL DONE GRASSROOT EVENTS. Date of review: November 23, 2011
