In full: My first 50 k, with time limit 5 h not beginners friendly. No toiletts on the route, had to use the bushes. By the time I finished no goody bags as they and some of the prizes have been stolen. Had to leave the bag in the sport hall unsupervised though the secre storage was promised. However, beautiful scenary, lovely weather, friendly people. Maybe will do the marathon next time

In short: A nice route with some tough hills in places that seemed to grow in length after each lap of this multi lap course. Certainly a club friendly race, something which was obvious to me as a unaffiliated.

In short: Very nice race. Only moan is lack of toilets at the start :(
In full: My first race at 26.2+ and loved it. Great course- thought it would be dull being laps, but helped with knowing just how far to go! Scenic in most parts too. My only real gripe was that there were (I think) less than a dozen Portaloos at the start for mara and 50k and massive queues as a result. Led me having to stop mid race for the first time cos i couldn't go before!! That aside, a great race in my opinion. Some marshalls more encouraging than others, but isn't that always the case? Back next year? Yes!!
