Really well organised event by the nice work team. Very helpful and friendly, and a decent quality T-shirt. An interesting course, enjoyable to run in a superb setting. Plenty of parking, very clean facilities and a lovely little café for post race food and drinks (a little pricey perhaps but worth it for a delicious sausage roll).
