In short: It was HOT HOT HOT & I suffered towards the end.
In full: Very well organised, Only small moan was no energy drinks available during the race just water & gels but great medal & t-shirt and fantastic support from the crowds.

In short: What was that about a plan b?
In full: Totally disagree about nothing organisers could do, Foresight is essential when organising anything & ideas for alternatives in a few areas should be looked at beforehand, anyone who drives around Hull regularly knows that our bridges & roads are constantly causing issues!

In short: MORE TOILETS NEEDED!
In full: Organisation before the start terrible, Marshalls sending people the wrong way etc, long queues for toilet at race time cos people been in the queue for half an hour, Get some Portaloo's & better plan for the start people were having to run to the start line & yes I know its chip timing but I had to fight through all the fun runners to get to my pen or it would ve been walking pace for a few miles! I was at the car park at 7.35 so its not like I came late.

In short: Virtually EVERYONE got lost!
In full: I did the 20 but ran 22 miles I know people who did the 20 who ended up doing between 23-27 miles, Also spoke to people who did the 26, some only did 25 & some 27, Hard instructions to follow especially for runners & absolutely no arrow markers at any point but badly needed in places! Sorry but one woman running her first ever 20 miler had to be brought back after doing 26-27 & was still 6 Miles from the finish!

In short: Last 4 miles were sooooooooo tough!!!!
In full: Was cruising at 9.5 miles then hit the muddiest of hills with the wind trying to blow you back down, my slowest ever last few miles to a race & getting back to the finish with people all walking across in front of the finish line & not members of the public but people involved with the race, one of whom i had to swerve to avoid 5 yards from the line after he walked right in front of me & then no medal or t shirt or bag or anything as they had ran out-PANTS!
