In short: Very well organised and well supported
In full: My first marathon and really enjoyed it despite the heat. Really good organisation with excellent marshalls loads of first aiders (much needed in the heat) and plenty of water and powerade. Some bits of the course are psychologically challenging eg Shoreham but it's not meant to be a walk in the park! Only fault was the repatriation area was chaos, it needs to be bigger and more easily accessible. On the whole it was a great race and I love the medal

In short: Well organized enjoyable race
In full: Nice course with a few ups and downs and the rather surreal airfield bit. Plenty of water stations, well stocked with gels. Could have done with a few more loos but what race doesn't. friendly marshalls and a nice shiny medal

In short: Great race and better organization this year
In full: Lovely scenic couse that is challenging in a nice way. More distamce markers this year and overall organisation was better.
Like dogs but could have done without them in the race, the trails are just a bit too narrow for that although the people running with them did seem to have good control.
Wish it hadn't been 300m longer than 10k : )

In short: Nice course, well organized and good support
In full: First half of the course is great, second is a bit more tedious as you wend your way through Hyde Park but the scenery is nice. Organization was good, didn't see that many freebies but maybe I missed them or took too long to run it: )
