In short: A 'must do' race
In full: Enjoyed this one yet again despite being 3 minutes slower than last year. The marshals were great. Full of encouragement. The extra drinks station at 10 miles was a pleasant surprise. I assume this was taking the theme of '10' a bit further. I certainly will be back next year.

In full: 3rd visit for me and noticing more of the scenery each year. Getting used to this great course and building familiarity with the (modest) undulations. Marshals were excellent throughout. Was impressed with smooth distribution of race package on day. Will definitely be back next year.
