Entered this as it was one of our running club's championship races for the year. 

The race starts on the running track at Leigh Harriers Athletics Club, and does a loop of the track before setting off out into Pennington Flash - good for a quick start! The course itself is really pleasant to run - nice undulating trail paths and lots of greenery - before finishing back on the running track again for a sprint finish. I think this year's route was actually changed slightly from previous years - most people's GPS showed 5.25 miles, rather than 5 miles.

Marshall support was great, and it was a really well organised run by the club. Another positive was the prize structure, with prizes going to the top 5 males and females (rather than the usual top 3), as well as usual age category prizes. As I finished 4th lady, it meant I received a prize where I normally would have just missed out :)

Overall, a very enjoyable race that I would definitely look to enter again.
