| Andy Reading 10K
10K
| | This is a 10K race at Chesterton (which is a few miles South of Bicester). It is a reasonably flat course, with about 4K on a straight old Roman Road called Akeman Street and another 4K round the perimeter road of the airfield at RAF Weston-on-the-Green. If you're not at the front, then, whilst on the airfield, you can see the lead car on the other side of the airfield about 2.5K ahead. It looks a long way away! |

| Rugged Radnage 10K
10K
| | Radnage is about 5 minutes from Junction 5 (Stokenchurch) on the M40. The first Rugged Radnage 10K took place in 2010. When I did it in 2010, I found that about 2.5K was on tarmac with the rest on tracks (some rough) and footpaths. Quite a bit of the route is through woods. There was a lot of mud, especially in the woods. There were also numerous large puddles on the tracks and the roads. So there was lots of off-road with plenty of opportunities for falling over or twisting ankles! In 2010, most people near to me walked the two killer hills: one of them is at 4K and the other one is at the start of the last 1K. There were lots of marshals: they were enthusiastic and well positioned. According to my Garmin, the K markers were accurately placed. |

| Frieth Hilly 5K and 10K
10K, 5K
| | Frieth is a village about 5 miles west of Marlow. The 10K involves sections on road, trails and footpaths through woods and fields, including challenging off-road descents and ascents. There's one point where the route that comes out of a wood to go along the side of a field throws you down from 160m to 90m during the course of 0.5K. Then, after a flat section along lanes through Fingest and Skirmett, there is the inevitable long hard climb. Although, unlike the descent, the ascent doesn't all come at once, it's hard work. In about 0.3K you go from 80m to 110m. The path then flattens out for a bit (in Hatchet Wood) before there is another push. In all, you go from 80m to 160m in about 2K. Although the rest of the route is mainly undulating, there is the final sting: the last 0.5K is a climb from 140m to 175m to get back up to Frieth. There is a 5K event as well as the 10K. |

| Blenheim 10K
10K
| | Here are my notes from 2009: The race had a new route this year. Although some runners afterwards described the new route as hilly, I thought the ascents were reasonably gentle, the whole course only varying in height from 75m to 120m - although the surrounding countryside was beautiful, the route was on a wide tarmac path throughout except for a few short off-road sections. |

| Finstock 10K
10K
| | This race is along gravel paths strewn with leaves and conkers in the scenic Cornbury Park. "The course consists of one large lap and one smaller lap and is undulating with several short sharp hills." The only repetition is the last 3K which is great as it means that from 7K onwards you know what's going to happen and can easily pace the rest of the race. On flickr, I've seen a photo of the Park that has a sign that you should give way to aircraft: before the 2011 race a runner from Charlbury explained to me that the owner (Lord Rotherwick) uses one of the paths as a landing strip. His wife (Lady Tania Rotherwick) was the third woman to finish that day. And besides conkers, I also saw two peacocks and a large collection of deer. I saw these in my warming-up: they'd gone by the time I reached them in the race! |

10M
| | This is advertised as "a tough 10 mile one lap road race in the picturesque Cotswold countryside". It lives up to that description. One of its features is an endlessly long but gentle climb of about 90m, the gentle hill lasting for 4K from Crawley to Leafield. Elsewhere on this course, there are a lot of sharp descents and ascents. So it is quite a challenge. The race takes place on pretty country lanes and roads where there is little traffic. |

| Standish Woodland Chase
15.19K
| | The Standish Woodland Chase is a "multi-terrain race over a course of almost ten miles following parts of the Cotswold Way". When I did it in 2010, my watch made it 15.19K which is 9.43M. "The route is hilly and run on mainly woodland trails, with some road, along the scenic Cotswold escarpment". From 0.5M to 1.5M there is a 500 feet climb; there is then two laps of a 3.4M circuit through the woods; finally you return down the hill to the finish. The woods are gorgeous and they reminded me of my training runs in the Chilterns. I even heard some Red Kites. The terrain in the woods was rough and undulating. |

6M
| | The Hornton 6 is described as a "virtually traffic-free course over a scenic and undulating race route". The start/finish is at the Village Green which means there is about a 350m long gentle rise before the first steep hill. It's then flat for a short while before a big dip. However, the flattish bit of the race starts at 2K and lasts for about 3K. At 3M, it's steep down into Horley but that is immediately followed by a long gentle climb through and out of Horley. From 4M, it's reasonably flat for about 1.5M. The race ends with 0.5K down hill back to the Village Green. After the race, there is a bar, a barbecue and free overnight camping. |

We also met stiles, steps, kissing gates, old wooden kissing gates that wouldn't move and cows that were standing across the path. There were four water stations and these were cheerfully manned. |

Both races start and finish on the Common in Ewelme visiting parts of the Chilterns that are to the East of Ewelme.

10K
| | This 10K is at Wargrave (which is between Reading and Maidenhead). It takes place on undulating rural lanes. Here's my report for 2010. As there were 628 finishers, these narrow lanes were a bit crowded for the first 3K (at least they were where I was). There is a hill between 3.6K and 4K, but it's mainly downhill or flat from about 5K onwards. The hardest parts are the straight and flat mile just before 8K and the last 0.4K which are on grass going three sides round the recreation ground. This is especially so when it's hot as there's no shade. The race was well marshalled and there were three water stations. Chips were used for timing. |

| | "The Kintbury 5 is organized by club member Dave Wright in memory of former member Ollie Johnson who was tragically killed in an accident in 2005, aged 18. The race helps raise funds for the Ollie Johnson Trust. Run on quiet roads and tracks around Inkpen and Kintbury, near Hungerford including by kind permission, some private roads. Start and finish at Kintbury recreation ground behind the Jubilee sports centre." Here are my notes from 2010: run on quiet roads and tracks around Inkpen and Kintbury - accurate mile markers - it starts with a run round a football field and then it's uphill for 1M - the race ends with a slight uphill - it's mainly on tarmac or concrete but there were a few small, loose gravel, uneven paths. |

Unfortunately, this has become necessary due to difficulties in obtaining permission from the local authorities to close the roads, which is essential for runners' safety." |

| Stoke Row 10K
10K
| | The venue for this 10K is the Cherry Tree Inn at Stoke Row. The race was the first activity of the day: other things were happening until 8pm. The route is a letter P with Nuffield at the furthest point away as shown in this map. The race starts at the end of the stem of the P. The stem is about 0.75K long and it takes you away from the village and down along a rough footpath through some woods. You then drop about 65m in that 0.75K. The next 3K gently climbs 90m along a mix of single track footpaths, wide rough tracks and tarmac lanes. You then run straight across a field and then do just 0.3K of the Ridgeway, the bit from the end of Grims Ditch to Nuffield Church. There is a bit more tarmac at the halfway point when you ran through Nuffield. But after that it is back to the mix of rutted tracks and footpaths occasionally single width. Some of them are through enormous woods. Gradually, you lose all the height you have gained to finish the circle of the P arriving back at the bottom of the 0.75K climb back to the finish. This is a tough way to end! |

| Brill Hilly 10K
10K
| | "The Brill Hilly is a 10k road race that takes place in Brill, Buckinghamshire. Starting at the famous windmill with breathtaking views of Oxon and Bucks it winds its way through Ludgershall and then back up Tramhill to finish on the sports fields. A real challenging course with a 1000m ascent to finish – this race is worth at least 12k!! The perfect final London Marathon warm-up!" "There is an all comers 1km Fun Run and a 'Dash' for the smallest of runners. All our potential Mo Farrah's and Pauline Radcliffes come out to have fun with a Dash around the cricket pitch." The race starts at Brill's windmill; it's then a steep downhill for the first 1K and then it gently descends for a further 5K. This is at the most Northerly point of the course in the village of Ludgenshall. At about 7K it gently starts to rise but this is soon followed by a steep ascent up Tram Hill back to Brill. This 70m climb starts at about 8K, near to Brill's old railway station. The first section of the hill is on a straight road and so you can see what is about to unfold. The road then twists and the hill finishes at about 9.3K when you are in the Northern end of the village. |

| | The race consists of two laps around the centre of Bourton followed by an out-and-back section along the road that goes towards Great Rissington and then another 1.75 laps around the centre. In 2011, it was well marshalled; and as usual there was a lot of crowd support in Bourton and a lot of runner camaraderie during the middle of the course along the out-and-back section. |
