In short: Great fun - can't beat a bit of mud once in a while.
In full: Positioning of some of the mile markers a bit suspect (did i really run 4:46 for the 7th mile?)

In short: Very good organisation, a nice race all round.
In full: A few minor niggles:-
- results - as a vet I'd like to see where I came relative to the other old farts - but there was no age indication on the results
- mile markers - I didn't see many past 5 miles - blown away?
- marshalls - generally excellent - but maybe a few more round the tight turns in the marina - I nearly went the wrong way twice
- water stations - need to be a bit more prominant, with more people to hand out cups.

In short: Excellent race and organisation
In full: Organisation very good for such a large race. Had to find a tree for a pee, arrived at my start position in good time to avoid the crush and managed ot leave the car park before the rush!

In full: Great warm-up for London. Why would anyone want to run a big sponsored city race like Bath or Reading, with great events like this around?
