In short: If you think you are in for a nice gentle stroll along the Thames, think again. This race is tough!
In full: you should get a medal just for getting to start of this race. One look at the frozen lock and you may wish you were still in bed.
Once you get started it is a lovely scenic route
and all the runners are so helpful. Tough job done well by the marshals.

In short: what a great way to spend april 29th 2011
In full: If you have never ran a marathon around a track then you are missing out on a wonderful experience. This was was spot on. Especially the attitude of the organising team. Well done.
The t-shirt is the best ever with a Hemp leaf logo on it. ( The nine bar was lovely and tasty)

In short: most enjoyable.
In full: you never knew what was coming next as it changed from town to country, twisting and turning . from road to canal to cobbles. A very interesting course.
