In short: really fast course but ultra low key
In full: Incredibly flat course, well sheltered with a nice, low key friendly, budget feel to it....you suspect the race could be much bigger than it is (compare it to Wilmslow, for example) but that the organisers want to keep it a secret!

In short: The profile says "flat/undulating" - must have been written by a Sherpa.

In short: fast route in welcoming city spoilt by pipe bombs and an awful course
In full: Great shame. This race has potential. It's very flat, got a good feel about it (not too big that it's packed at the start, not too small that you are running on your own later on) but after the first 10 miles, the course is diabolically dull and deserted.
