In short: Not bad, just not great
In full: Good: People were fun, no pushing, good water stations. Nothing to look at, no big hills, just a bit dull.

In short: Slightly late start but otherwise great fun.
In full: my longest race so far, by a long shot and it was made thoroughly enjoyable, both by my fellow competitors and the local people who was liberal with their praise for the long string of runners invading their town/village. Only little let down was standing around for quarter of an hour at the start while our mucles got a bit cold, but sometimes these things just cant be avoided and we were kept informed over the tannoy at al times...

In short: Apart from the late late start, and traffic which made overtaking a little scary, nice race.
In full: Apart from late start which kept everyone waiting a little longer than expected at the start on a chilly Sunday morning great race, excellent support from locals - thanks for all the jelly babies!
