Didn't have the atmosphere of a town or city run where you would have lots of people cheering you on. The organisers placed around coarse did a good encouraging us with their tambourines.

Loved this course, the organisation, the scenery, the volunteers and the weather (cool and sunny). Ran a new PB of 1.29.38 - an improvement of 6 minutes. Very happy!

The volunteers were v good - v friendly and positive. Weather was lovely and a nice location (I’d not seen Draycote before). Only surprise for me was the hills. I hadn’t expected that going round a reservoir!! But all in all a v positive day - and quite easy to drive too, which was a bonus.

For my first 10k race it was amazing! I’m not a natural runner but the enthusiasm from the Marshalls kept me going. Would certainly come again ☺️
