Race director Jodie Causer had reasons to be happy with the outcome.
'We had some issues getting people to the start with baggage and usual last minute toilet trips annd this delayed the race by about 5 minutes,' she said. 'The car parking needs to be amended as we had queues until 9am. But to put this race on from just an idea about 14 months ago and see it happen is a real testament to the team we have at Norwich Road Runners and really makes me proud.'
Alongside the main race was the popular chip timed junior race, held round the Dinosaur park itself - this also was a great success with 129 finishers.
Planning for the club now begins for the Wroxham 5k series as well as making changes for the 2020 Ringland event.
