Cormorant Huge, well-organized event, mostly flat but never with much room to run in. Had a bit of a wobble around 6-7k, but otherwise OK. Gebreselassie blamed a slight breeze for his time, so I'll do the same. Cranleigh Tortoise & Hare Runners 44:56 48:30 50:15 60.66

Should Av Run Quicker Training going OK, so may sneak a PB if I get a good start.
*** Just about sneaked a PB, felt terrible at the start, needed the loo all the way around, stomach not good at all. and suffered big time for 10k, no sprint finish in me and was surprised at my time*** Stockport Harriers & AC 35:27 36:49 36:30 36:49 76.81

podrunner Initially hoping for a PB when I registered for this race and I have an Orange A start. I'm now 16 weeks pregnant so will just be going out to enjoy this one. Still hoping to do sub 1hr. Result - really pleased with time, felt comfortable all the way round. Chorley Athletics and Triathlon Club 41:53 49:22 54:00 49:22 60.53

Duke of Drayton Really pleased to get in this one after missing the VLM.  Loved the race, the biggest I've taken part in to date.  A bit slower than I hoped for but still managed to get 14th place in my age category. Cambridge & Coleridge AC 39:22 45:18 45:00 46:30 58.92

stocks Didn't enjoy the race as much as last year, got in a very crowded group and with dodging bodies, pavements and rubbish in the road never really got into usual running mode - disappointed! Unaffiliated 49:29 51:19 47:00 51:19 59.40

ibecks Hadn't run as far as this in 6 months and also had no idea of my pacing as my Garmin had died a couple of days before.  Given the circumstances, I was happy with this, but I could definitely run it faster. Unaffiliated 57:49 1:01:13 1:01:13 48.82

Whoever Brilliant day, excellent event followed by elite races in Deansgate. Achieved a great PB also. Best 10km event I've ever been in. Next target must be to get below 40 minutes. Northern Veterans AC 39:58 41:07 45:00 41:07 71.65

Jimrunner Fantastic atmosphere and location for this race.  Managed to start just behind the elites including the legendry  Haile Gebrselassie!  Went out a bit too fast, getting carried away with the occasion, and struggled a bit from 7K with lack of energy but achieved my aim of sub 35 mins! Macclesfield Harriers & AC 33:46 34:59 34:59 80.19
Tony67 Gutted hoping for a sub 50, would have got it if I did'nt have stop for a pee halfway round, otherwise a great race. Unaffiliated 50:59 51:05 52:00 51:36 54.36

JamieKai *chameleon* Would like to PB this one, but am realistic due to the human traffic... Running independantly for CMT-UK.
Orange wave!!

Well, tripped a guy over near the start who was running rather aggressively, but then I relaxed into a good pace. Very happy! Unaffiliated 36:29 39:30 42:00 39:30 66.84

fifi20 Felt pretty  steady and split time 26.13 for 5K, so very equal. Not too much weaving in and out but certainly quite a bit. Good weather- not too hot or cold. Unaffiliated 51:13 52:32 52:32 59.99
