In short: PB potential, good facilities
In full: Not the best of courses, but with over 300 runners the sea front would not be possible with many walkers dogs etc around. Turkey Trot on Boxing Day was a bit of a problem down there with 110 runners, having to duck and weave around promenaders!
Finish was better than last year. Somebody mentioned more markers in last mile, how many do you want, do you want it in 100 metre splits?
Well done to Roy and the gang, it all came good, nice facilites, showers, beer etc too:-)

In short: A good way to kick off the New Year
In full: Overall, thought it was good but felt there should have been more seafront given the location. Agree with earlier comment about the finish - too many bends in the run up. Can we have more distance markers in the last mile / km ? Chips and mug of tea on the seafront afterwards made it all worthwhile.

In short: A good run to start the season. pretty well organised. Good info updatess
In full: Needed a good run to mentally get over an injury and this did the trick. Only just outside my PB, which after being out since the GNR really boosted me. Thanks to a club runner who latched onto me and brought me home from the mile and a half point. Well done to Roy and his team for a smooth operation. Pity about the scenery. Maybe a bit more of the seafront would help!
