I really enjoyed this race - my first HM and a time of 1:45:27
It was really cold at the start especially after waiting an extra ten minutes on the starting line for all the traffic to get in - my carefully timed warm-up was useless! The race soon got going though and it was a great course - not really hilly but I did have a slow mile for mile #12 as it was a mild climb and I was knackered
Most of the route is along tarmacced roads and the bit that is inside the park itself is on paved tracks I think. It will be a cold start though have a good race everyone!
