In short: good race, with some real quality at the front! Would suggest that with the problems at the start an overhead start line inflatable would let people see where the start is and position themselves accordingly?

In short: Well organised flat-ish race
In full: This race was well organised with plently of parking and friendly marshalls. Bit of a different start as we walked for 5 mins to get there and a little confusion at the start as people were lining up on the wrong side of the start line. Route was pretty flat although there were a few rises around the 8-9 mile mark but nothing too bad with the wind blowing us back. Thought the mug and chocolate bar at the end was a great idea.
Only one small comment that the queue for the ladies toilets were quite long at all 3 locations, maybe a few more porta loos would help this.
Overall a good race which I would consider running again.
