In short: The stadium finish was electrifying. it was such a pick up at the end.
In full: Fast, flat and loads of goodies for the tat chasers.
Space blanket was very welcome, the welsh cakes were yummy, the medal nice and chunky.
Downsides - grasscrete and cobbles. Ouch!
Long queue for the free massages

In short: Well-organised, glorious weather, shame about my race plan really!! Recommended
In full: What can you say? The weather was ideal, the scenery is beautiful, tho' not as many loch views as you would imagine, the 'flat/undulating' classification belies some short, sharp uphills, some tough downhills and a couple of killers between 17 and 21 miles.
Be warned, the fast start can fool you - badly. Trust me, I know. This was painful.
On the whole, though, Baxters do an excellent job of organisation and the support through the villages and once back into Inverness is terrific.
Do it!!

In short: Very friendly welcoming run with a fantastic stadium finish
In full: The weather could have made this a hideous run but for the most part this was an enjoyable marathon. The race was made for me by the wonderful support of fellow runners and by the marshalls who smiled on despite the deteriorating conditions. Stadium finish was magic!

In short: Felt a bit cheated as the course was shortened by 3 miles due to the weather. Loved the signs on the way round & the kind people handing out jelly babies etc when I was starting to feel a bit tired. The best bit was the bog!
