In short: Lovely scenic 20 miles, and very very flat so excellent first race for this sort of distance and fantastic pre-marathon build up run since its not too challenging on the old legs.

In short: Nice race, low key, lovely views
In full: Good move to delay the start by 30 minutes due to conditions, though i believe a mix-up around the staggered starts, some people missed the 10m start as this was changed twice and you needed to be in the hall to know this. Thank you to all the marshalls for standing out in the cold for so long.
Didn't like the 8 or 9 90 degree corners plus one 180 in the
last 1/2 mile or so, didnt ehlp for a sprint finish (i think i'm being a little picky here though)
I shall watch out for this one next year
