In short: A stunning event with a bit of bite
In full: This event has gone from strength to strength and it is great to see son many runners and such huge support this year. The route is stunning and testing giving a great sense of achievement as you finish on the stadium track.
This event is meticulously organised and the logistics normally great. It is pity that the bus company let us down, but we are hardy lot and the great cameraderie at this event meant that it did not spoil the atmosphere.

In short: Finish not so good
In full: I thought that the changes to the finish were not well thought out. Having to finish with an incline and not being able to see the finish until the last 50 meters or so was not good pychologically.
I received first aid at the finish and it was fine.
