In short: Excellent - but make the car park no entry while cars are leaving
In full: The marshals were the most enthusiastic and uplifting that I've ever met. A really happy event - towards the end, the girls with the pom poms and then the African drummers were heart lifting.
Only bad bit was the girl in the yellow 4WD trying to drive into the car park when everyone was leaving.

In short: 9 and a half out of ten
In full: Would have given it 10/10 except for the fact that the medals were the same for both races! Would have been nice for the extra effort that the half-narathoners put in to be recognised, even in a small way on the medal or ribbon.
By the time we got back, all the freebie goodies had been nabbed by the 10k runners! Which cheeky devils took 2 bananas? ;-)
