In short: Great organisation - couldnt praise it enough
In full: My first half - not the easiest of routes , but excellent organisation and great atmosphere made it have that 'big event' feel.
What better place than Plymouth hoe to start and finish - despite that last hill!

In short: Brilliantly organised race with a laid-back feel
In full: Felt like quite an achievement for my first half marathon, would have liked sub-2hrs but managed just over - those hills are killers! A great learning experience, did the race as part of my marathon training this year, but would love to do it again.
