In short: Excellent run by the seaside. Watch out for the very steep hill to beachy head!
In full: Excellent run and well organised. The wind is very cutting when you get to the seafront but the views are worth it. The very steep hill up to beachy head is at mile 2-3 but it is all downhill and flat for the rest of the race. All in all, well worth the effort.

In short: Very well organised and a race for everyone
In full: The organisers of the Eastbourne half seem to have stepped up their game a notch. Not that there was anything wrong with it before, but the extra finishing touches like chocolate and sweets and an overall smooth operation made this a very nice race for all levels.

In short: Well organised, enjoyable run
In full: Wasn't sure what to expect given some of the reports from previous years, but I found this to be a very well organised event. A varied route with the challenging hill early on, long stretch of promenade and the loop around the marina. Would like to try it again without the biting wind straight into the face for miles 4-8 ...
