In short: Acceptable, but not special.
In full: This was a funny Half-Marathon. It's not really flat - there are some gradual climbs out in the country, but it's not hilly. It's not urban, though it begins and ends by running through town. The roads are mostly wide and clear, but the there is a narrow footpath in the last quarter, with a bike restriction. The atmosphere was friendly, but I made no friends. My wife really enjoyed the five-mile race and set a PB, I had a terrible race and bombed.
I'll go back this year, but more out of curiosity than enthusiasm.
