A great race. Beautiful and interesting route with the uphill challenge of the locks. Very well organised and the best goody bag at the end! Free parking at the finish with a free bus taking you to the start. Beware, there can be quite a bit of hanging about - either for the bus - or at the staggered start so do come with some suitable disposable clothing that can be dropped (for charity collection) right at the start. Highly recommended as a different, fun and from the results I’ve seen, fast 10k.
