In short: Thankfully the rain held off and we yet another great run around Lake Vyrnwy courtesy of the Oswestry Olympians. My only problem is that the start is always congested, and maybe thought could be given to it starting on the road if that were possible.

In short: A rainy day in mid-Wales created a mud bath on the route, but couldn't dampen the spirits of all who took part. Excellent marshalling, organisation and atmosphere. I will be back next year to have another go at beating that train!

2011 Virgin London Marathon

In short: A difficult and slow start from the blue start (run,stop,run,stop) made it hard to get into pace. Why did the road need to narrow so much there?

In short: Does what it says on the tin. A good 20mile training run for a spring marathon. Just where was the finish line though?

In short: I love running this race. My only moan would be the start was not as well placed as usual this year, but otherwise, another perfect day.

2010 Conwy Half Marathon
| | Overall score | | 80% | | Would you do it again? | | Yes | | | | Details: | | Scenery | | 100% | | PB potential | | 60% | | Atmosphere | | 60% | | Organisation | | 60% | | Value | | 80% | | Beginner-friendliness | | 60% |
In short: A good half marathon with glorious scenery and, of course, a good 2 mile climb up the Great Orme. The only problem I had was that the first couple of miles are very tight, with little room for passing,and the queue for medals/t-shirts was a bit slow.
In full: Otherwise, this is an amazing race, has great potential and will surely grow and grow with each year>

In short: Yet again, another glorious day in Llandudno. I'm sure that last climb gets longer and steeper but what an amazing race. If only they could incorporate a half marathoin into this or bring back the 10mile road race
