In short: Flooded, tough hills but a really enjoyable run
In full: This is one of my favorite races of the year, its very well organised, and the marshalls deserve a medal for standing out in these conditions cheering us all on, they were brilliant. The route was so flooded but added to the fun and the hills seemed to be tougher than last year! Will definitely be back again next year!

In short: Fast course apart from the underpass
In full: A fast flat half if you werent being held up at the underpass, which cost some of us valuable seconds and a PB! apart from that the race was very well organised, and the route was nice once we left the town centre, although I wasnt keen on doing 2 laps. The marshalls were friendly and encouraging. It was also a good idea to have banana's at the end to give runners some much needed energy after the run. The only other problem was the massive queue to collect your bag, we were starting to get cold waiting around.

In short: Great Race, Breathtaking scenery, Very well organised!
In full: It was my 2nd time at this race and well worth a 5 hour journey to get to Tywyn, loved every minute of it! it was made tougher this year with the hot weather, but plenty of water/isotonic drinks to keep us hydrated and very helpful encouraging marshalls to keep us going. Cant wait until next years race!

In short: Lovely scenery, lovely weather and very friendly
In full: A really enjoyable race, the scenery was lovely, the route was fairly undulating and the marshalls were helpful and friendly. It was also nice to have encouragement from the other runners! A good pre marathon run, and we couldn't have asked for better weather :)
