2008 Dundee Half-Marathon
 | | Overall score | | 80% | | Would you do it again? | | Yes | | | | Details: | | Scenery | | 60% | | PB potential | | 100% | | Atmosphere | | 60% | | Organisation | | 80% | | Value | | 60% | | Beginner-friendliness | | 80% |
In short: A good course, well organised and with excellent PB potential.
In full: This was my first year at the Dundee half so I can’t make any comparisons with previous years. A nice start with a slightly undulating run around the park but no major hills, after that it is a fast flat course giving excellent PB potential. Some dullish areas to run through but a nice finish. The weather was a lot better than expected and overall it was a well organised and friendly race.
