In short: Great Race
In full: This was my first 20 and it was a good one. It was hard towards the end but the support was great, and a big thank you to the marshal with the jelly babies!

In short: Well organised generally, nice scenery
In full: Overall a good race, well organised, car parking a bit closer than a mile away would be nice. My only complaint is about a Vegan runner who stopped several times abruptly to pick up worms on the road. Thoughtful but potentially very dangerous.

In short: Ow... That hurt...
In full: Probably my fault for staying up 'till 2am the night before, but I got the pacing totally wrong for this. That aside, the marshalls were fantastic and the Jelly Babies very welcome. Any Gripes? well, the sports drink was too small and too watery. maybe gels at the halfway mark?
Thanks to RRR for a fab event!

In short: wonderful uplifting experience - I even smiled at the end!
In full: Super race with a well organised start system (you stand in your expected finish time zone) and a really good mix of runners of all shapes, sizes and abilities. The marshalls were excellent and put themselves out to encourage people individually. Some of them wanted to race but had to marshall instead, so thanks to them for giving up their Sunday. Will definitely go next year.
