In short: Bloody Hard, Bloody Good Fun!
In full: This was my first Knacker Cracker. What a great event, obvioulsy the weather was glorious, but the camaradarie amongst competitors was second to none. Well organised and great value. I will be back, I just need to think of a more ridiculous costume for next year. P.S. I was Pammy in the Orange ;-)

In short: Without a doubt the worsed organised event I have ever done
In full: Enough people have already mentioned the bagagge and bus situation, add to that random pens based on simply colour of your number, so fast runners stuck at the back, a pointless half lap of a track then funnelled into a footpath followed by industrial estate for the first 3-4 miles. Not sure the company behind this, but they clearly do not know how to manage a race!

In short: Nice small event, great for 1st timers and excellent for kids!
In full: This is my 2nd time running this event. Nice small event around 250 runners, pleasant out and back a couple of times along the seafront. Easy to park and all in all a hassle free event. The main reason I did it again this year though is beacuse of the the THREE funruns before hand. Most events have one fun run usually 1m+ But here you have a 500m, 1k & 2k. Which meant my boy (turns 3 in November) was able to take part. He loved having his own number and running with Daddy and he even got the same medal as me (depsite me running 20x further :-) and as the fun runs are before the main event, it means it is far easier logistically (from a parent perspective). Other events should take note!
