In short: Lovely idea and well put together
In full: Had a fantastic time despite the heat - the friendly competition between the nations made the run that bit more interesting. Organisation was great, as were the marshals - thank you to all involved. Being able to check your time/place on the computer at the end was a great finishing touch.

In short: Fun event, should be a pb
In full: It was a fun idea, which they might have made more of on the day - I only identified a handful of other "UK" runners by their kit, though clearly there were many more. The marshalls were cheery and it was all very well organised, an extra water stop would have helped as it turned into a hot day. The official time checking facility at the finish line was very impressive and the grounds were lovely - wished I'd packed a picnic! A friendly crowd of runners.

In short: Excellent organisation & a novel idea but quite a boring setting.

In short: Good fast course
In full: good scenery, friendly organisers, would have been nice about an hour earlier in the day, but over all a good run. Got a PB so no complaints. Good job The Fix.
