In short: It's OK. But the mementos at the end are a bit insulting after a 1/2 marathon.
In full: The organisers seemed nice enough. But the course is 6 laps, and that's quite annoying.

The medal I received at the end is by far and away the cheapest looking in my collection. And the bagel and orange it came with were scant reward for completing a 1/2 marathon.

Contacting sponsors and organising a proper goody bag would be a good idea. Or spending a little more on the medals, because they are important to some people.

If I do this race again it will be because it's local to me, and not because it's anything special.

In short: Well organised, lovely route. Very enjoyable, and a bit challenging. 10/10.
In full: Well organised, friendly staff, great course, lovely medal and nice goody bag at the end. I would go again and would encourage others to do so.

In short: Good race, well organised. Enjoyed it.
In full: The event got some bad reviews last time regarding water running out and medals running out. But the organisers responded in the desired fashion and made sure of no such repeats this time. It was a fun race and the atmosphere was really good. I would recommend this race. Well done to the organisers.
