In short: Enjoyable run around country lanes
In full: Wasn't 100% sure where the start was but just followed some others and found it.
We lined up before the lead car and wheelchair athletes had got through so had to part for them.
A little bit congested for the first mile but then things spread out and it was far easier to run at your chosen pace.
Not sure why they had an early water station (plastic / polystyrene cups) and it was raining anyway so not overly hot thankfully.
Nice finish in Jubilee Park with subdued crowds lining the road up to the finish.
No problems with chip return or getting a medal / bottle of water.
Car park was easy to exit along a single lane road that others (locals?) decided to use in the opposite direction.
Plenty of friendly marshalls.
