Lovely. Nice venue lots of parking. Nice family atmosphere and a nice run. Was a warm day running down country tracks and fields. Nice personalised Medal. Would prefer water in a bottle rather than plastic cup much easier. Would recommend.

Friendly & welcoming event. 2nd time I have run here. Very well organised and such a welcome atmosphere. The course is scenic and mainly flat. Toilets and secure bag drop. Plenty of goodies waiting alongside a really nice medal at the end. I will definitely sign up for the next one.

Excellent Event. Well organised, well marshalled, lovely family atmosphere, a great route and a cracking medal. And it was run in support of Guide Dogs. What's not to like?! Already in the diary for 20120!
