In short: traffic free, quick course, excellent organisation In full: top quality & friendly organisation, quick smooth wide course, dead cert PB potential, traffic free, easy access & parking, good loos and refreshments, more-or-less flat, 'scenic' in being greenish and 'special GP Circuit' backdrop, friendly marshals and good support from spectators, lovely medal, even the weather settled for the race, what more can be said except top marks all round + see you again next year...

In short: Enjoyable course - some organisational issues ! In full: Undulating but not too scary course - very scenic traffic free course. Start/Finish ares good ...but certainly some organisational issues that need firmer control - 'non arrival?" of portaloos delayed start by 15mins with communication to waiting/anxious runners poor; bad signage around school of registration/baggage areas; water stops a bit muddled at times; long walk from car park; basic medal/water ..been getting used to goodie bags elsewhere lately !; course may not of needed too many marshals but sadly only about 1 in 5 of them seemed cheerful/attentive/supportive - had expected more of BJ's ! Am sure they can sort these niggles for next time ... Date of review: August 22, 2011

In short: Pretty good but a few issues ! In full: Good atmosphere and reasonable organisation - starter was rambling on and then someone at the back shouted go and we seemed to be starting ! No 'layering' of expected times at the start so conjested and very slow first k which ruined many PB chances - nearly impaled on some posts that could have been better marked - friendly marshals but could have managed traffic and runners better - runners seemed to dangerously swarm across and back over some main roads in a few places with no control - tough hill after 5k but pleasant couse taking in Wimbledon Village - water stop undermanned and in too narrow a path - not really fully a road race as some parts across trail and grass - great goody bag and organisation at end and prompt prizegiving - impressive times by winners - road signs seem to be left for the day around the course !! Despite all that would still recommend as an enjoyable event ! Date of review: March 1, 2011

In short: first time here & enjoyed In full: enough said about the mug, big let down and no medal or real memento .... not as tough as had been prewarned but the icy slippery bits initially down from the top was a bit scary - great atmosphere and friendly runners and enjoyed the course - will be back next year Date of review: December 12, 2010
