In short: Great organisation, challenging course
In full: Not sure this is a course that seasoned competitors would set a PB on (last 4k are pretty much uphill all the way) but it makes for a challenging run. Great organisation by 26.2 RRC.

In short: bit hillier than i thought it would be and the start was a bit far from the bag storage but apart from that great marshals, good course and a good t-shirt at the end. Oh, and I got a PB which can't be bad

In short: Flat course with good marshalling
In full: Marshals around the course were all stars, helpful and encouraging. Marshals at the end on the t-shirts were great, but the water station was empty and was left for runners to man. Apart from a that a good run on a Soggy Sunday

In short: Enjoyed this race for its friendly atmosphere
In full: A well organised race on a rainy Sunday morning. Big thanks to the marshalls - it can't have been too much fun standing there in the rain. I would recommend this race, especially if you are live in south west London / Surrey. T Shirt finishers prize was good too.
