In short: a very good first half-marathon In full: 2 laps of the same course, country lanes and a small village, starting and finishing at the norfolk showground. very flat, very slight uphills and one downhill section. good atmosphere and friendly locals out in support. would do it again despite being a 3 hour drive away. stayed the night before and saw the city.

In full: An excellent event and one of the highlights of my families long weekend in Norfolk.
Spending the pre-race warm up in a shed smelling of deep heat and fertilizer was a first but the glorious weather during the race made up for it.
Best wishes to the organisers - mank thanks Date of review: November 30, 2009
