I’m sorry but this is far from being a flat course. How can you say that climbing up stairs three times during the 10K is flat. At one point you have to climb at least 12 steps to reach street level from the towpath.
As for aiming for a PB, you joking! I was around 7 minutes slower then normal, and I was feeling very fit before the race.
Yes a great little fun run, but not one for anybody wanting a PB. And absolutely definitely not flat!
