Bath Half-Marathon by Straycelt
| | Overall score | | 40% | | Would you do it again? | | Yes | | | | Details: | | Scenery | | 20% | | PB potential | | 80% | | Atmosphere | | 60% | | Organisation | | 20% | | Value | | 40% | | Beginner-friendliness | | 60% |
In short: Worst Bath Half I've ever taken part in.
In full: Set PB here a few years ago but stressful day. !"££$$ organisation, no number sent out, queued for over an hour, start delayed, weather foul, bag organisation a contradiction in terms and the only uplifting things were in the crowds, who turned out in appalling conditions. Let's hear it for those drummers. Overpriced event, poor goody bag, appalling T-shirt and no medal, but proximity to FLM and home make it worth doing even as an expensive training run

In short: My first and probably only marathon - what a fantastic day!
In full: One of those days which will be remembered for the rest of my life. Brilliant organisation. Not great weather but who cared?
I can't think of a better place to run - unless of course I wanted a PB

Serpentine Running Club Last Friday Of The Month 5K by southdowns
| | Overall score | | 100% | | Would you do it again? | | Yes | | | | Details: | | Scenery | | 80% | | PB potential | | 100% | | Atmosphere | | 60% | | Organisation | | 100% | | Value | | 100% | | Beginner-friendliness | | 100% |
In short: Better than payday!
In full: A lovely race that makes one Friday a month special. Great oreganisation and a lovely green course in the centre of London. Wildlife I have spotted this year: Green woodpecker, large tame but living rough rabbit, wren, squirrels (natch), owl, Peter Pan
Extra value comes from the superb website which records all your times with results available before the end of the office day. I do wish the website explained those 'age adjusted' scores though.

In short: The most annoying race of the year
In full: Keeping people waiting at the start, and lack of official results and just badly planned. Seriously consider before doing it again.

In short: Nice, friendly, well organised race.
In full: Nothing to fault with the organisation, and the course was a nice varied one. I completely failed to see the water at the end, but then I was so cross with my time that might have been why!

In short: A good run, despite the organisation.
In full: At least there was water this year, not that I trusted there to be and I brought my own. It needs chips and start filtering and then it will be a smashing event. And no cotton T-shirts - what a waste of time!

In short: A bit fast for me!
In full: Admittedly I ran a lousy race, but even on form I would have struggled to be more than 20 from the back. It is nice that there are local events like this that you can test your pace at, but everyone zooming past you can get so demoralising!

In short: New route was a challenge crossing the Forth Bridge twice, and using coastal paths with stunning views of the Forth Bridges.It would be difficult to find a race with more hospitality, from race day breakfast to post-race meal and the evening disco !
