In short: Beautiful Day, Beautiful Scenery, Beastful Hills
In full: Perfect running conditions for this year's race (especially compared to 2008!). The long climbs between 0-2km and 5-7km are made up for by flat/downhill the rest of the course. Difficulties parking delayed the start but (unlike last year) this was not too much to endure in the sunshine. Glad to see the organisers responded to the problems with the Kissing Gate last year. It would have been good to have marshalls to hand out water at 5km. It's also a bit expensive - cup of water, a banana and a medal for £14! The change of course at the top of the hill is better.

In full: Stunning scenery, great atmosphere and glorious weather. Slight delay in the start time as believe some runners experienced some parking problems? Hill a killer 2nd time round...will be back for sure though!

In short: Steady incline and a hill in opening couple of kms well balanced by a fast run in. Cracking weather made it for me, back next year for sure!
