I've done many Fylde coast running events. Always great value. This was another example. 

Race number collection was simple & straight forward.

The race itself was based & run at the beautiful Fairhaven Lake, Latham StAnnes. It can be a little awkward to get to but nothing a taxi didn't solve. It cost £11 for taxi from out hotel in Blackpool. There is also a regular bus service.

The race was run in hot temperatures.

Scenery was quite stunning.

It was a flat, 2 lap course run mainly on paths, although there was a grassy section which was testing on tired legs.

The nature of 2 lap races mean you often see mileage signs for 2nd lap distance.

This can be quite demoralising.

Local support was decent but not spectacular.

Marshal support was 1st class.   

Finishers were rewarded with a fantastic, solid medal & water. 

A finishers shirt would have been nice but not to worry. 

In summary, this is a brilliant race.  

If you want scenic running with top bling then this is the race to do.
