In short: Car traffic was a nightmare getting to and from race Spoilt the atmosphere for me somewhat. .
In full: I run lots of races and have never had such difficulties getting to and from the race (apart from one Reading Half Marathon). Although I had given myself lots of time to get to the race, as soon as I arrived at the outskirts of MK, there was gridlock and as a result I arrived late when the police were telling runners all the places you could not park. Similar problems driving home when it took me almost an our to get to the M1. I may well not run this one again unless something can be done to help with traffic flow - maybe start somewhere else in the town.

In short: Well organised.
In full: Good weather, very flat course and so can achieve good time. Don't understand why it has to be so cramped at the start. Suggest alternative start position rather than narrow lane. Would have been nice to have had fruit or fruit drink at the end.
