In short: The toughest half marathon I have run, but the friendliest and most scenic. Great and much welcomed breakfast after.

In short: great race in lovely weather
In full: We were lucky with the weather but i think it would have been a great race even without the sunshine. There were a couple of steep hills but most were pretty gradual - which made running up and down them a bit nicer. Really good atmosphere with pretty much everyone in the field being able to encourage each other on due to the out and back nature of the course.

In short: Too much fun! Not steep enough! Puddles too clean!
In full: Excellent route, easier than the Monro and pleasanter scenery. Terrific atmosphere in runners and organisers - Many thanks to Rob and the team.

Next year I shall be leading the start-line singing of the republican anthem, "Barwick Green" - Dum-di-dum-di-dum-di-dum, Dum-di-dum-di-dah-dum!
