In short: A flat but not very interesting course. The old course was better. Don't see the need to ban ipods though as most of this race is off road. Excellent and friendly marrshalls.

In short: Flat. Airfield was a bit dull, sea side made up for it.
In full: The switchback nature of the course meant that you could see faster and slower runners for long stretches which is inspiring (regardless of them being in front or behind).
The marshals were excellent, cheering everyone on with good humour.

In short: A great end to the year
In full: Lucky with the weather for a late half marathon. Course is not that inspiring, but I liked running past the HoverSpeed factory, took my mind off the pain! Flat and fast, and very well marshalled. Give it a try, you might like it

In short: Well organised but the dullest 2 hours of my running life - why ban IPods when most of the race is run around a disused airfield where the only 'danger' is stepping on an uneaten jelly bean.

In full: Just wanted to thank the very well organised and cheerful marshals at this event. They offered fantastic support and encouragement to every runner despite the cold - most welcome. Great post race massage too. A really friendly race. I'll be back!!
