In short: Windy & confusing finish
In full: Nice flat route tho very exposed to high winds; good marshalling around the main part of the course but horrible last mile! first going off to run around a little cul-de-sac for no obvious reason then back onto the main round and then around some kind of mini industrial estate with neither markings or marshals. Just what you don't need after 20 miles. Also my garmin clocked 1.15m for that last mile so maybe we didn't need the cul-de-sac at all! Rather spoilt an otherwise fairy good day.

In short: 'wind-ham 20m'
In full: a very enjoyable race, good organisation and well marshalled on quiet roads. One atrotious bit near the end where runners cut up to a mini-roundabout and then back to the course just to make up the distance - just what you don't need after 19.5 miles of 20!! Not a real problem though.
