In short: A s a beginner this year at 50 it was tough but glad Ive done it,great overall atmosphere In full: Only negative was the people who insisted on shoving through runners obviously together when there were other possible overtaking routes (possibly one of the negative reviewers Ive just read!) I WAS in the correct band and finished a respectable 1 hour 50 - a miracle as I was knocked sidways a dozen times by not very nice people thankfully the minority. I trained hard but wldnt do it again without a lot more training 10k to 10 miles is tough,also given me the push to lose that extra 21IB (agaon!)as it would have been easier, loved the scenery,havent seen the victory for 35 years plus!Unecessary wasted power drinks if you follow the advice beforehand and ensure youre well hydrated you shdnt need that many drink stations,most of it was wasted.Great organisation, great pack altho colour of shirt a little disappointing.
