In short: Decent Event - Woeful organisation
In full: A good venue for the event and I thoroughly enjoyed competing. However, I would say that in 30+ years of competitive running I have never come across organisation as poor as this. Would I do it again? Yes I would, but the poor instructions and extreme rudeness of one of the marshalls in the transition area leaves quite a bit if room for improvement. Plus I hear that some of the back markers did not get medals because the organisers had run out. 6 out of 10 - Room for improvement

In short: Excellent All Round Event
In full: Firstly, anyone who says there wasn't enough toilets wants their eyes tested. There were more toilets here than any other event I have done and in 30+ years of competetive running thats quite a few. Organisations was slick and stewards were plentiful and extremely helpful and friendly (other events take note) OK the route on the dual carriageway wasn't the best that Cardiff has to offer but what other event offers scenery like Cardiff barrage and bay area. Everyone is entitled to thir opinion but some of the comments made are so far from reality that they BEGGAR BELIEF as Victor Meldrew would say. Excellent event Cardiff - WELL DONE

In short: Wot no drinks station!
In full: Overall a pretty decent event. Spoilt this year by two things 1. No drinks station! Absolutely disgraceful - No excuses. 2. My goody bag did not have a medal in it and I was told by one of the stewards that he had numerous complaints about goody bags with no medals. This is an expensive event and things like this will put people off entering again!!!!! Organisers take heed.
