In full: Have run plently of Marathons, but my first Half (so at least it was a p.b.) Thanks to the superb Marshalls and all at the Striders. A great race and a great day out for the family, too. I'll be back next year - but why have timing chips which don't register when you cross the start line ???

In full: This was my 1st Marlow 1/2, i don't think it will be my last. A very well-organised, well marshalled race with very nice scenery along the way, with good support from the locals. Even the hills weren't that bad. I will definitely do this race again.
