Really enjoyed this race! The course is perfect for a PB and shaded for the majority of the way, so it wasn’t too hot. The atmosphere always feels very supportive too

It's the first time I've done a 5k run. It was difficult to see the finish line because it was around the corner, if it had been straight ahead it would've been better for a sprint to the finish line.
