In short: Great race for testing your speed, super quick!!!
In full: Firstly, can I apologise to all the other runners, I was one of the 2 idiots who was slightly late and delayed the start by a minute or so, sincere apologies for making everyone wait in the cold.

Great race, really did what it said on the tin, pancake flat (an unusual feature for a S.Wales race!), plenty of space to run in, didn't use the water station today as the weather and distance didn't require it, but well manned. Marshaling was excellent especially the super motivator on the final turn onto the main road back.

Excellent tech T shirt in a full size range at a bargain price. One slight thing that could be improved would be to put up a couple of signs directing people from the stadium to the school, we were unfamiliar with the area hence didn't know where the start was, that is the only thing that could be improved on. Overall excellent job Lliswerry Runners. Great race to test your pace if your Spring Marathon training (and with few 8 milers about your likely to bag a PB!)

In short: Fab race, ideal time trial for London Marathon
In full: What a great race. Lliswerry Runners have done it again. I used it as part of my training for VLM as a timetrial and it did everything it said on the tin. Great PB potential with it being so flat.

Can only agree with the reviewers of previous years, and the technical t was a real bonus, just a pity they ran out of smaller sizes for those finishing towards the end.

Would I do it again? You bet!
