In short: Well worth attending,very hot day, not normal for time of year, the marshals were good but at mile 8 we really did get good support from a group of very enthusiastic people who really did give us a good cheer, this was very welcome on the second lap
In full: A good day even though the day was very hot, around 28c, one or two issues of cars going to quick on some of the back roads, i think the marshals could have slowed them down,support was good especially around mile 8 for the half and 21 for the marathon, a group of very enthusiastic supporters cheered us on, this was especially welcome if you were on the marathon as the heat was getting to us by then, a big thankyou to those people, just hope they are there next year with as much energy, just need a few more of these people on the back lanes as support was lacking until we got back into the town of Sutton then back to Mablethorpe to the finish. Well done to all involved.
