Beautiful place, easy well organised parking, seamless and simple registration, fantastic route on nice firm ground, well marked and well marshalled. Ended with a free medal, a sausage/bacon or veggie roll and bottle of water! Results posted in afternoon and a downloadable certificate. Fantastic 👍

Organiser's description

The 10th Anniversary Grantchester Charity Runs are in support of two charities at Addenbrooke's Hospital, Cambridge. The 10k and 3k runs both follow routes through attractive farmland adjacent to Grantchester, just outside Cambridge. Importantly, there are no awkward road crossings, in fact there are no road crossings at all! The courses are mixed terrain and predominantly flat, so we expect fast times.
