2009 Nike Milton Keynes Half Marathon
 | | Overall score | | 80% | | Would you do it again? | | Yes | | | | Details: | | Scenery | | 60% | | PB potential | | 80% | | Atmosphere | | 80% | | Organisation | | 60% | | Value | | 80% | | Beginner-friendliness | | 60% |
In short: Enjoyed it. Friendly marshals & plenty of water.
In full: Arrived an hour before the start and had no problems parking. If people had problems parking it may have been due to turning up just before the start - maybe the efficient car park attendants had to be elsewhere for the race. Start pens would be good. It's not great having someone next to me joking how everyone would probably overtake him. And the other major improvement would be to ban the use of headphones. Don't people realise how selfish they are being when unaware of other runners, especially on narrow routes? But a good race - thanks.

In short: One of my all time favourite races
In full: Having run it for the first time in 2007 I was looking forward to this and was not disappointed. Thank you to all concerned especially the cadets, marshalls and supporters. My only concern last year had been the confused finish area where non runners and runners were not separated. The fencing/funnel addressed that this year so thank you. Bring it on again!

In full: Back again for an attempt on my pb at this great race. The start and finish were well organised and I'm glad last year's amendment to the route has remained. I agree with the comments on the toilet facilities, otherwise no grumbles, loads of praise. Missed a pb though!
