In short: An absolutely brilliant event.
In full: I ran the Kent Costal Marathon as a training run in the build up to Abingdon marathon and I have to say it was a great race. I shall definitely be returning next year (hopefully to help to retain 1st team prize).
The whole thing went like clockwork. Yes there was a slight delay but this was to ensure everyone was correctly registered and had picked up their numbers.
The marshalls were incredibly supportive and the marshall on the bike that was riding back to Margate moving pedestirans out the way for me was brilliant!
Great goody bag, lovely t shirt, nice medal great prizes.
A wonderful day out.

2010 Bungay Black Dog Marathon
| | Overall score | | 80% | | Would you do it again? | | Yes | | | | Details: | | Scenery | | 100% | | PB potential | | 40% | | Atmosphere | | 80% | | Organisation | | 100% | | Value | | 100% | | Beginner-friendliness | | 60% |
In short: I had a mare but Bungay BD running club certainly didnt!
In full: This was my third marathon and I have to say although it's very low key it was absoutely brilliantly run. Everything worked like clockwork, except my legs at mile 23! The support was great from the marshalls and the course very pretty but challenging.
I will definitely do this race in the future, but not until I've got London & Boston out of my system.

In full: Awesome race. Nothing more can describe it closer. Incredibly challenging but you leave with the best runner's high ever.
Thank you once again Petts Wood Runners.

In short: Excellent
In full: Colin, thank you for rating your own race!
The fact that you're not a running club and were doing this for the first time I was amazed at how well you did. I came along not expecting much but left thinking that the race was brilliant. Sure a couple of teething problems but none that were huge cause for concern or put anyone in danger which is the most important thing.
You should be very proud of what you put on, I hope the funds raised made it worthwhile and you will consider doing the same next year. I for one will be in!
Regards,
Jason Cherriman
