In short: Tough course, but well worth the effort !
In full: One of the best organised events I have run at yet. Lots of parking close to the event, loads of toilets by the start pens, bag drop as you walk to the line, excellent goody bags, medals & T-shirts, and a great atmosphere. This really is a small event, that feels so much bigger due to the superb organisation.

Route is definitely challenging, but for the most part the climbs are gradual, with a couple of short sharp parts.

Hard to beat from a scenic point of view !

In short: Forget the hills and enjoy the views
In full: They call it the little race with the big reputation and given that Bath and Bristol are c40mins drive away their Half Marathons are a much bigger draw (although at the other end of the calendar), but this is better organised, friendlier, has a much more pleasant route (although hilly) and is more of a challenge too.
