In short: Enjoyed the race, needs the finish sorting for us slower ones!
In full: A nice race, most of the organization was great, good friendly marshals, water before the race, etc, but there were some areas that need improving on. A map of the course sent before the day, or at least having it available online would help. That way supporters would know how to arrange good viewing points. The end for us slower ones wasn't great, I had to run round a family armed with dog on longish lead! As for friendliness, lots of faster club runners, but all were supportive and friendly. Overall I enjoyed the event, and hope to return another year

In short: Good race
In full: Easy parking nearby and loads of toilets. Couldn't understand a word the starter said. Great first 3 miles on the flat and the gentle climbs up the cliff road were OK - certainly no more testing than the Midhurst 10k. Fast last 1/2 mile, but the finish line was much further back than I thought. Knackered! Good race though, so I'll be back to beat my bad time!

In short: Swift and scenic
In full: Thanks for a smoothly organised, friendly race - lucky with the weather too. Runners at the back of the field had to negotiate their way through meandering crowds. Would it be worth tapes/barriers to encourage non-runners and those already finished to keep off the course?

In short: Fairly flat and fast course but shame about the organisation for the later runners who had to work way through spectators on the finish.
