2007 Merthyr Mawr Christmas Pudding 10k Challenge
 | | Overall score | | 100% | | Would you do it again? | | Yes | | | | Details: | | Scenery | | 100% | | PB potential | | 40% | | Atmosphere | | 100% | | Organisation | | 100% | | Value | | 100% | | Beginner-friendliness | | 60% |
In short: A 'must do' race that everyone should do at least once.
In full: Very professionally organised - everything went smoothly. It starts on time, which is one of the most important things in my opinion.
The marshalls do a fantastic job - standing out there exposed to the elements for hours, yet all of them were cheerful and encouraging to the last.
The water feature near the end is the cherry on the cake!!!!!!

2006 Llanelli Waterside Half-Marathon
| | Overall score | | 100% | | Would you do it again? | | Yes | | | | Details: | | Scenery | | 60% | | PB potential | | 60% | | Atmosphere | | 60% | | Organisation | | 80% | | Value | | 80% | | Beginner-friendliness | | 60% |
In short: A good race - friendly atmosphere, a little small for the slower runner
In full: This was a well organised race, especially as it was the first time it was held. Plenty of friendly encouraging marshalls. The only downsides were the wind - which is always going to be a feature of this race because of the venue. Also, there was a distinct lack of direction signs for those people driving in. To be fair, the organisers sent out clear directions - but, the road names were not to be seen!
I would certainly recommend it - especially if there is a bigger field in the future.
Oh - and many thanks for the food voucher, I wouldn't normally eat greasy chips from a van, but today it was very very welcome!!
