In short: well organized, decent sized field.
In full: Not a bad venue though I prefer it at Brockwell Park. I understand that this was not an option due to work on the lido. Would have prefered a medal to a t-shirt.

In short: Great Advert For 10ks
In full: You have to take your hat to Nike for what was a very well run event. For a race of this size they did a great job. I was very reluctant to enter as races on this scle have a tendency to be a bit shambolic. The online tracking on training run and the pre race comunication was very good. Also post race information on the website was innovative. You could access your splits plus see a video of yourself stumbling over the line. I suppose you could be cynical and say for £25 you'd expect a few bells and whistles. On the negative side they did nothing to split faster runners from the fun runners at the start so a fast time was hard to achieve. Great atmosphere and a good day out.
