In short: A good charge out, who cares if it was short.
In full: I get fed up with garmin wavers moaning about short this and short that. Enjoy the run. You were happy with distance measurement before garmins were around. They are not 100% accurate, get a life!!

In short: One hill too far for me
In full: Moving the finish line to the top of the hill for this year was a bit too much for me - I struggled to keep going.

In short: Interesting race
In full: One very naughty little sharp incline (visited twice), but overall a balanced course.

In short: Highlight of the year
In full: I wasn't as quick as last year, but turned a years best time so not too unhappy. K markers still a problem. Most annoying to be clipped by a cyclist on the run to finish, others had similar problems too. All in all though, good race.

In short: Oh dear!
In full: They need to get the start right. They need to get the finish right. I was very very annoyed to have to stop some 10 yards from the finish because of the queue. How they will be able to give me a time I really don't know. It would have been nice to have the t-shirt stand and water nearer the finish too.

In short: Hard work but probably worth it in the long run
In full: Quite a challenging course but not as hard as I had expected it to be. Only Gripe is with the K markers. Putting them at 3, 5 and 8k wasn't helpful for measuring progress unless I just didn't see the others.

In short: Very pleasant although hilly
In full: A lovely course,well organised. Only downside was the fact that I had not run for 3 weeks so the last hill was a real killer for me. I'll know better next time.

In short: Not too bad - actually enjoyed 'the hill'
In full: Went well until my shoes became very uncomfortable at about 9.5 miles and I ended up having to walk for a bit and hobble in at the finish - mental note, wear nearly new shoes for longer races.

Parking was a nightmare, however, the course was a good challenge.
