In short: Nice course, but this is a very expensive race
In full: I enjoyed my race and gor a PB, but I think it's expensive for what you get. I've never been a fan of medals instead of T'Shirts, especially when the oreganisers try to flog the T-Shirts at the finish area. Also, for the money they should use timing chips instead of getting times wrong for most of the field.
On the plus side, the organisation on the roads and drinks stations is really good

In short: Not for the faint hearted or beginners. The hills can be very tough. Suited to club runners.
In full: The race is well organised and friendly, but is damn hard. I struggled with the hills and only manged to avoid last place but out sprinting the bloke in the Superman custume and the two asthmatic women in baggy tracksuits.

Someday I'll go back and do it.......

In short: It's my big local race, so I always do it. The hills put some off.
