I've done the DB MAx Chilly 10k a number of times and come back for good reason.

Overall this is a great event. The traffic free racing on the Castle Combe race track is well suited to a wide range of competitors. No getting lost and easy to navigate for newbies and super fast for the PB hunters.

The November 2017 event did have a few niggles though. Access to the car park was very slow for some reason. I've never experienced this in the years I've been to DB Max Castle Combe events before so hopefully it's a one off. The event start was put back by 15 minutes to resolve the issue, another nod to DB Max being a quality event organiser.

Next the registration area was a little confusing. The 10k and Duathlon entries were in different places and not that well marked. I qued up in the Duathlon registration area first of all.

Finally the race briefing was fien for the 10k being at the main start. Some of the Duathletes thought it was the same start line which wasn't so well marked out for them.

Overall it's still a great event and I'll be back for some more next time!
