In short: Just not quite as tough as I expected. More like uncomfortable. Lots of fast sections.

In short: Lots of fun and games
In full: Really enjoyed this, slightly longer than the earlier one, but none the less, great to do. Wish more people would join me in doing these events in fancy dress - the cow suit didn't slow me down (although my calves hurt...) and it made fighting in the puddles all the more fun! Recommended!!!

In short: Much more exciting than expected, my first half marathon and there will be many more to come because of it!
In full: I'd forgotten how much fun running was, because of the Leeds Half Marathon there have been many more races since! I will most definately be doing it again this year! Thanks Leeds!

In short: 2nd time of doing it, and a PB again!
In full: Enjoyed it more this time, because I wasn't so fazed by the second lap. But by the time the slower runners got in, there wasn't any water left, which I thought was really bad.

In short: Glad to have shaved 3 seconds off P.B secured in Great South Run but disappointed not to have markers at 7 miles and 9 miles that proved frustrating!

In short: very well organised, good traffic free(mostly), coastal course.
In full: Times/enjoyment dependant on the weather, more toilets would be helpful. Walk/run to the start, from the race HQ was far enough to be a good warm up, ample water stations.

In short: Blow the cobwebs away on this mildly undulating, very rural (mmmm....aaaagh!) course near the River Severn.
In full: The best bit is that it starts and finishes near a good pub. 200 or so entrants, and it's a good opener for the year.

In full: The last 2+ miles are soul destroyingly boring - the finish is constantly just around the next bend...
