Brilliant race - one for the diary

It was my third time here, although the first on the new course from Old Deer Park. Difficult to fault anything and really enjoyed my run. Hope to be back next year!

A good local run supported by a local running club.

Please can we have an additional water station at about mile 5. Where you run back on the route would be a good place. Many thanks.

Lovely flat 10 mile race along the Thames

Scenic 10 mile route along the towpath with lots of marshalls. Much nicer than the old 10 mile route along the roads. Only complaint was not having a cut off time on Saturday for collecting race numbers but will definitely be back from Devizes to run this much loved race from 2009 again!

Really well organised and marshalled event

Great event - small and very friendly, well organised with bag drop, toilets, water and a lovely pint glass at the finishing line!
Huge number of supportive marshalls all the way along the route

Brilliantly marshalled, many marshalls meant that runners need not worry about getting lost.

Good idea to have a coffee van at the end!
Really excellent, kind and frequent marshalling. Nice to stand in the sun chatting afterwards.

An excellent local race.

It would be great if you could provide results for more age categories eg v55, v65. I am 66 and I won't win the race :) but it would be good to know how well I did relative to others closer to my age (ie in the v60 category some peoiple might be over 6 years younger than me).
