    Anyone doing this tomorrow evening? I didn't do it last year as I wasn't around, and I was sorry as apparently it was great fun & the t-shirts were lovely.

    I've been off all week with my mysterious foot injury, but I'm hoping to do this tomorrow as a fun run to see how I'm feeling.

    I saw their facebook page the other night - the word 'fabulous' is used quite a lot!

    I'm signed up for this race, first 5k in a while, looking forward to it!

    I'm doing it too, my first 5k so I'm looking forward to it. I know the route quite well as I run down their regularly, should be a fast enough course once it's not too windy as it can be very exposed. Could be a bit congested on the cycle path at the start if there's big numbers, but there's plenty of grass on either side to go around people of necessary.

    From last years results I see that they had under 300 runners. Don't know what they're expecting this year but hopefully should settle down fairly quickly.

    Did it last year,can get a little congested if lapping people but most will run on the grass if there is no room on the path.
    Great charity and worth supporting !!!

    Really well organised race this evening with a super atmosphere, thoroughly enjoyed it. Didn't run my smartest race ever but that didn't take away from a great evening. Well done the Front Runners!

    Echo everyone else's comments, great race(even though I normally hate looping circuits), great atmosphere, lovely technical T-shirt(I'm building up quite a collection now), water and bananas just as you cross the finish line, will definitely make it a yearly event. Good support too although not for me, everyone seemed to know the guy I was battling and were cheering him on although it kinda spurred me on to push harder and beat him...which I did :)
