In short: very well organised
In full: Plenty of marshalls, would have appreciated a shower afterwards, but can't have everything. The parking being so far from the start/finish area was a problem, despite the free transport as I left my after race kit in the car, not realising how far away it was. Never mind. Gave me a chance to wear my new t-shirt. Despite the hills, I enjoyed this race. Never run this distance before so a new challenge. Good bacon buns afterwards and prize presentation reasonably quickly after event. A good marathon build up race. Well done to all organisers and marshalls.

In short: Lovely race, shame about delayed start
In full: Well organised except for that delay at the start. The cold really got into me. I'm sure that's why I didn't do a PB - nothing to do with that hill that was much steeper on the second lap.
Would love to do it again at a slightly warmer time of year. Well done to all the organisers, marshalls and the race director.

In short: One big hill which seemed to last forever
In full: Big hill to start with and a smaller one at 5 miles. The strong wind certainly affected most people's times today. Was this because the race has moved forward into March instead of early April?

In short: A hilly run that is usually good weather. Challenging hill at the beginning that soon sorts out the runners.
