In short: Another great race.
In full: and again the weather was at the hotter end of the scale.
A great race my only gripe would be the crowding after the finish. Standing around for 10 minutes in a que for your freebies was not good, stiffing up and needing a drink.

In short: having ran both races, this year was an improvement on last year and will only get better
In full: A really good time for a very good cause. Yes the walkers were a bit of a problem, with it been a charity event they most likely did not know race etiquette so an announcement at the start would have helped.
But who can complain when everyone is there to raise money.
Scenery & course is very good. Good water station and an uphill finish (not to steep or far.)
A bit more advertising locally to make visitors aware of the runners.
This is getting better each year so try it next year.
I will be there again next year.
