In short: A great race - Undulating does not do it justice!!! Well organised - thanks to all involved
In full: A great build up for FLM. Being a Norfolk lad the hills were slightly alien to me and I suffered because of it. Great friendly marshalls made all the differnce going up some of those hills.
Very well organised, although the walk back to the car park seemed to take forever.
I "tweeked" my achilles at around 15 miles so had to limp in for the last 5 so not my best time by far.
Would do it again though!

In short: A good well organised race - good build up to London
In full: A perfect warm up for London marathon. Slightly undulating but not too challenging.
Slightly disappointed with the memento at the end. Mind you it wasn't expensive to enter so musn't grumble I guess.

Good friendly marshalls who gave lots of encouragement

In short: A great, well organised race. A credit to all involved in putting this on
In full: Having entered twice before but failed to make it to the start line it was a treat to actually line up and start this time. Well worth the wait. A fantastic, slightly challenging course with a tough uphill finish. very well marshalled and having km markers helped no end. Even the soup at the end was good! Roll on next year.

In short: Great race - Gently undulating is putting it mildly
In full: A very well organised race, in perhaps the hilliest part of Norfolk. A great race over an unusual distance means I'll be back for sure (if only to beat that hill at 2 miles!)
