In short: Superb race -wellorganised good atmosphere.Interesting route
In full: I did this 1/2 marathon in a p/b time so i guess i will remember it for a while!
Well organised and an intersting route.
The start was well marked with points to stand at for your predicted finish time.
Chip timing is great for giving you an accurate time.Finish well organised.
Poor `goody bag`but hey who cares!
i would recommend this race to anyone!!

In short: I first did this in 2003 and blew up in the heat and hated it. I came back this year, paced myself better and was on for sub 3 until that head wind after 21 miles. Not my fastest marathon but probably my most satisfying.
