In short: Great event apart from the usual chaotic start.
In full: A remarkably fast course considering it is on Dartmoor. Great course, plenty of parking, toilets etc. But when is the start going to be sorted out. There should be guidance in the race info telling people to position themselves on thye start according to where they expect to finish. Filling the start line from the front causes too many slower runners to be be bunched near the front. Many of these were inexperienced and probably did not enjoy getting jostled/trampled on etc. It wasn't much fun for those of us being forced to run off the road to get past them. Apart from that it was otherwise a great event and I'll be back.

In short: Warm HQ, plenty of parking, excellant friendly (and frozen) marshalls, an event I'd recommend
In full: Brilliant event. Dartmoor at it's best. I wonder if the marshalls have been de-frosted yet?

In full: Definately worth the effort if in the London area on the last friday of a month. The concept of racing the same course regularly throughout the year is a great idea for gaging how you are doing.

In full: On paper it looks flat but it is deceptively hard, or maybe I was enjoying the views to much.

2008 City of Truro Half Marathon

In short: OK event but rather expensive
In full: I like the hills, water and sponge stations and marshalling were spot on. Cornwall is wonderfully scenic but we were stuck in back lanes where you couldn't see much in front of you. The entry fee is rather steep. Numbers have fallen for the past two years for this event (unlike all other events in Cornwall), the course and entry fee are likely to be to blame. Hopefully Truro RC will respond favourably before the numbers drop too much.
