In short: An excellent race as always

In short: First time running 21 miles but now I know what I'm up against. After the 19th mile I found this very tough, and lonely. The traffic was worrying. Do it again? Yes!

In short: Great race for the 21 miler. I liked the second loop of 6 miles as there was people still doing their first lap so always someone to aim for which kept the pace good on the last leg. Everyone, runners and organisers very friendly.

In short: no organisational problems apparent to this tail ender
In full: not an event to do when one is recovering from a bad back hence 15 instead of 21!! That was the personal downside to the day but as far as marshals etc were concerned, there was no chance of going astray so fair play to the organisers. Location of HQ excellent, toilets etc for the start, town centre and supermarket for refuelling afterwards. Just a pity about the back with just four weeks to London!

In short: Very well organised and marshalled
In full: Not a reflection on the race at all, but some motorists were less than considerate, with one car driving a few millimetres away from me, which made me drop my water bottle.

In short: Lovely race, would definitely do it again
In full: Slightly hillier than I'd expected and it takes quite some willpower to push yourself past the finish funnel to do the second of the 6 mile loops, but a really nice race overall. Could do with another water station or two to make it perfect.

In short: Well organised undulating run through the Surrey countryside
In full: Enjoyed it as my first 20+ race - well organised, friendly atmosphere and good route. Toilet facilities at the start could have been better. Don't know whether it was me, but I only found out once I'd got home that tea and cakes were available after the race - I had to make do with a trip to Sainsburys
