In short: its all about the stadium finish!
In full: fine organisation as ever. pretty nippy course if you dont get stuck in some of the twisty bottlenecks. good crowd around the start/finish and excellent noise in the stadium at the end.

In short: needs tweaking, but overall a good race with a decent crowd
In full: pro s: it is a good distance. with the amount of road closures etc fine organistaion. v good support from stewards and spectators. better than people suggest on here, not sure what they expect, seriously i've done plenty of races where its just been 1 man and his dog.standing around watching stinky strangers run past prob isnt that much fun, show some grattitude!!! beer tent at the end, immediate post race beer(s), love it!
con s: the start needs some work (toilets!) and the finishing straight was nt the best (pretty rubbish) for the people watching. easily fixed though.

In short: always a good race its well supported and has a good solid course
In full: will people please stop lining up at the front when you have no chance of keeping a decent pace. You earn the right to start at the front by running quicker! grrrrrr.

In short: sneaky little hills
In full: it’s a good route, enough ups and downs to keep you occupied and a good race turnout, runners and supporters. Having the finish on a climb was a bit mean. Next year please sort out the registration, far to cold to be hanging around Queuing
