In short: I liked this race a lot. Nice villagey/rustic feel, friendly bunch. The finish was a little disorganised though. There's one long incline around 7km but apart from that, the reports of the race's hilliness are exaggerated! Could be a PB course.

In short: Beautiful location, well organised. Nice post-Christmas atmosphere. Disappointing memento (plastic water bottle) but everything else was good. Highly recommended for blowing Christmas out of your system.

In short: Great to run by the sea, and dead flat. The organisation was a bit hit-and-miss (eg few distance markers, pedestrians mingling with the runners), but overall, a recommendable race with a good crowd of runners.

In short: Very poor organisation. No response to emails. I had to pay 10 for a medal and still,no one can tell me when or how I will receive it. Very disorganised finish - no chocolate left for the slower runners, and only small/med t-shirts! A cliquey event

In short: It's rightly noted that this isn't a scenic race, but nevertheless it has a uniqueness that I'm growing to like. 2004 better than 2003, with more atmosphere. The worst thingis the name: "the London Half" is a pretty outrageous piece of mis-marketing!

In short: Great place for a race. Just 2 negatives: only 2 or 3 distance markers, and miserable marshals!
