In short: Poor organisation at start and end
In full: No excuse for not starting on time - an extra 30 minutes standing around was not required! Shambles at the end. Too many people for the venue. 3 hour drive each way to get there and £40 of fuel was not worth it.

In short: Well organised and a real marathon challenge
In full: The marshals deserve the medals - 5plus hours in the cold, wet, wind - well done. This was the 12th marathon I've done and by far the biggest test. Hilly and poor weather conditions. Well done, again, to the marshalls.

In short: Poor value for money and badly organised
In full: No promised goody pack, poor t-shirt - faded when washed. Start OK but I didn't realise I'd finished! No clear finish line. Chaotic. Too many runners - plus those out of puff walked in the middle of narrow roads so hard to pass. Not enouth water at end. Should have been really good but I won't be back.
