Bob - Thankyou! I'd like to agree with everyones postive comments. I think you and your team are amazing for giving people like myself the chance to do this. From my point of view everything ran perfectly and you truly exceeded my expectations.
It was my first marathon so I cannot compare the course to others but I liked it. I liked going through the park just as I was starting to really hurt then through the city centre. The uphill finish was tough but by that stage I knew it was less that 10 minutes of pain left so nothing was stopping me. I smashed my target time and my fundrainsing target so it was a day I'll always be proud of.
I hope the event goes from strength to strength in future.
