In short: Loved it last time and just as good second time around In full: OK, so with 5.75 laps it's actually more 11.5th time around, but you get the picture.
There's a really nice, friendly, relaxed vibe about this race which is hard to beat.
It ain't broke (in fact, I'd say it's in pretty much perfect working order), so they don't need to fix it. Date of review: March 9, 2009

In short: Good early morning run In full: As a slower runner being lapped so often was not good for the head, but I would do it again as it's close to home and over quickly :-) Date of review: March 9, 2009
