Good race and nice route but due to the heat, they could have done with more water stations. Great support around the town, real community spirit helping you along, but the last mile for 10k is really rough as it takes you into and partially around the racecourse where there's little support. This part should be first as you need the support towards the end so must have been enough tougher for the half milers! The organisers have sent an apology and are asking for feedback so hopefully some of these will improve for next year.

Well organised race and nice route down into cheltenham and back to the racecourse. The last mile and a half are super tough round the racecourse and the head wind didn’t help
