In short: Lovely scenery, well organised and a nice morning out
In full: Thoroughly enjoyed this race with lovely scenery. Particularly enjoyed the canal paths and the great views of Belvoir Castle. It is a hidden gem that isn't spolit by the masses. Managed to shave a considerable amount of time from my PB despite the hills. Would recommend to seasoned runners and amateurs

In short: Great run in a beautiful Place
In full: really enjoyed this half marathon even though it was only my second. Even though there was 2 killing hills i still managed to take 2 mins off my PB. Will be back next year, but better prepared for the hills. Organisation was first class and the watering stations were well manned and in the right places. Showers and facilities were also first class.
