In short: Good race, shame about the car parking fiasco!
In full: Many good, positive points already made by other runners. Main issue for me was the car parking nightmare - one of the car parks we were directed to in the instructions we were told to leave by a surly manager, and when we finally arrived at another, it was completely overflowing. After 4 attempts and nearly missing the start, it was not exactly the most relaxing race start ever! Great supporters and marshalls however, thanks! Just please sort out traffic and car parking in future and I'll be back!
