In short: Medals/chips and finishes
In full: Just to sum up some of the development areas:

- a medal (not a T shirt)
- chip timing
- goody bag (chocolate/water etc)
- remove false finish

Otherwise a tough race!

In short: I had a cracking hangover running this but even the marshalls managed to make me smile!
In full: The marshalls must have been the jolliest lot I have ever come across and it was freezing! Nice and flat and scenic (with woods and trees and cycle paths) very pleasant if you haven't got a cracking hangover.

In short: My favourite race
In full: This is my all time favourite race. Lovely scenery, nice cup of tea in the club beforehand and a chance to read the Sunday papers. It's a really friendly and relaxed race and I got a PB!

...and don't you just love that final 1 mile to the finish; downhill all the way.

Thanks to the marshalls [and the police] and the band, for making this a truly memorable race.

In short: Want to organise a wedding?
In full: If I ever get married I'd ask the stragglers to organise my wedding.

You lot can certainly marshall!

In short: Lovely mud
In full: Well organised, friendly race in a lovely small village. Loads of marshalls who were really encouraging. The mud was great!

In short: Fantastic
In full: This race took you from the playing fields of Harrow School up the hill to Harrow School itself. It was a glorious day and a fabulous race. Well organised, friendly marshalls and a friendly atmosphere. Well done.

A great day.

In short: Where were the marshalls?
In full: Someone forgot to put a marshall near the monument and a large group of us were directed by one of the first aiders in the wrong direction so we ended up running down a main road (not very safe)

..and if you are going to use children as marshalls, could you instruct them to direct and not to just to stand there?

This was a poorly organised and unsafe race

In short: This was bliss! A wonderful race
In full: Pretty village, tea and home make cake before the race in the coffee shop and a prayer from the vicar. I decided that this wasn't going to be a PB so I enjoyed the wonderful tracks and forest paths instead. Huge hill at 8km; I have no idea how the 1/2 marathon runners coped with this at 12 miles! Finished in a field which was very odd! Excellent marshalling and water stations. This was a gem of race to find and I'll be back next year.
