This event was a local event to me & the 1st time it was being held as a 5 mile race. 

There was lots of parking available. 

Race numbers & timing chips were collected on the day, & the process was quick & easy. 

The race was advertised as flat but it was definitely undulating, however the scenery was stunning & there was cooling castle to go past. 

There was loads of marshalls out on the course, all of them doing an amazing job & encouraging all runners. I was near the back & they were all still enthusiastic. There was members of the public out cheering too, with  1 family had set up a hose pipe as a shower, which was needed as it was a hot day. 

There was 1 water stop, at the half way point which had bottles of water. 

At the finish (which was at the same place as the start), there was medals, bottles of water & your chip was removed. There was also  epilepsy selling tea, coffee, cake & bacon sandwiches. 

Ovrall it was an enjoyable event with great support & all organised.
