In short: Well I enjoyed it! In full: I thought it was a fab race. Goody bag was excellent- provided todays brekkie (Muesli) and made sure I smell clean and fresh and have lots of energy!And we got sarnies and a BIG medal. Course was OK I liked that you could see how many poor folks were behind you and you knew what you had to face on the second lap. A fine bracing race. Commentator was good too - very encouraging. Changing facilities would have been nice I'm sorry for flashing my bare bottom Blackpool- I really needed nice clean clothes on! Date of review: February 23, 2009

In short: p.b. broke 1 30 In full: the scenery is not the best in the world but the organisation was top drawer and the goody bag excellent making this race well worth the trip from dingle land. broke my pb by almost 3 minutes and to break 1 30 was a target I never thought I would actually achieve. arguably my best running day ever and thanks to all the organisers. to close, separate changing areas for male and female runners would be a good idea.
