In short: A fine race for a fine City...
In full: this two lapper with a hill (for us norfolk folk, it's a big hill OK! - if you are from wales or the peaks then it's a minor undulation...) the goody bag was great - environmental joy - contents were a bit dodgy, but 10 out of 10 for the non plastic bag! hopefully for the 25th year in 2009, there will be lots of great stuff in it. T shirt was fantastic - must be the best race T ever!! sets a standard for others, but then hey, I was no 2696, it has to be a good show! get there early next year, and don't cock the start up, you have to remember, things go a bit slower in Norfolk!!!

well done all involved, overall great race and looking forward to next year...

In short: great race, friendly & well organised, great momento, banana & water!
In full: Very Friendly, great route (although I'm certain that second half was all, albeit gradual, uphill!)
I'm just surprised there seemed to be so few - maybe the weather forecast put them off. This is a great race - stick it in for next year!

www.teambis.co.uk - help us with our charity 3 peaks challenge (sorry couldn't resist the opportunity for some free publicity for the cause!!)

In short: Friendly, well organised race.
In full: my first full marathon - probably not the best to start at, the second lap over those pesky hills was mildy uncomfortable! great marshalls and lots of them, drinks and sponges aplenty and well stocked, nice momento and towel. well done Bungay, thanks for a great run, my legs are still burning!

In short: Once again, very well marshalled and organised, thanks for the effort, much appr.
In full: those marshall's need medals for standing out in the rain! much better with the added extra to finish at the race HQ, although it seemed like a slog around the park!

In short: I'm sure Norfolk is normally flat and cool...great organisation though, recommend.
In full: First big up is of course to the local residents, who set up impromptu showers and additional water stops en route. Was seriously tempted to stop at the beer garden at the Barford Arms (both times!) a bit gutted with my time, but with the heat getting round was the target, great run in to the finish with your name called out and lots of cheering. No medal is cack, as is giving t-shirts with 'finisher' out before the start!?!?!
BIG THANKS to all the marshalls, who worked flatout to keep those water stations stocked and still managing to clap you through...

In short: My First Race!
In full: First time out, so hope I've judged this fairly as I've nothing to compare against! I'm really glad others have mentioned the wind cos I thought I was just plain struggling! Tried to say thanks to all the marshalls, as it was brass monkeys - they must have been frozen! will do again next year - Hell maybe even the 20 if I'm still going - great fun, thanks for taking my first time gently. (91min - 10m) <- I had to do that cos I'm proud!!!!
