In short: Good race - organisation improving every year.
In full: Still prefer the finish in front of the town hall but you can't have everything! The organisation has improved considerably over recent years - well done the Scouts on the drink stations.

In short: Ow my legs hurt
In full: Apart from the bottle neck start I really enjoyed today. My first half-m and I think it was easy enough to get a good time. Thanks to everyone who helped out, cheered us all and ran! ({Ps. Thanks for the hills - they actually helped me!!

In short: Second time running it, doesn't get any easier!
In full: I'd forgotten how tough this cousre actually is. I always seem to struggle over the last 3 miles. But the organisation was very good this year and the atmosphere was fantastic and helped me to get round. Anyway, I did it 10 minutes quicker than last year so I'm really pleased with that. I may have even got a PB but we'll have to see.
