In short: Well organised, great weather, bit hilly, a good day.
In full: Had a great run, no real problems, loved having my name called as i entered the stadium (well running track). I seem to be the only one to have found it hilly but still managed 1 hour 30 mins so I'm happy enough. Could have done with a sign at the car park for the finish as it was our first visit but thats a minor thing. See you next year.

In full: Really enjoyed the day. Loads of support throughout the route and some sunshine too. Despite having groin tendons tighter than guitar strings this morning I'm looking forward to next year already.

In short: Fantastic event, shame about the chip collection
In full: Fantastic Event, Organisation, Support and Atomosphere. Shame that the chips had to be collected early or the day before, not sure why they couldn't be posted!

In short: ENJOYABLE RACE WOULD DO AGAIN
In full: Hurt my knee night before and thought I may have to pull out. Glad I didnt! Great atmosphere, nice scenery, not too crowded on the roads, a few hills but not too bad, Good weather. Well organised and marshalled. All in all a very pleasant run (and my knee held out!).
