In short: Tough but 'runable'
In full: I'm biased, as i'm a member of LBAC, but pleased to read the reviews. Funnily enough the flatter bits at 7-9 seemed the toughest - the hills soften you up!

In short: Perfect...but marshalling issues
In full: Really great, friendly race..and a lung buster, but issues with the marshalling past the top of the monument, sending quite a few people off course. Cost the first woman around 1 minute. Great otherwise...

In short: Great Race
In full: Agree about scenery - worry about scenery on a long training run, not in a race! Great event and good standard..33.53 left me 46th!
Nice FREE cake - obviously not nice enough for everyone..how inconsiderate of them.....
