In short: Boy it was crowded today
In full: Struggled to get any space to run for ages, not stopping but held up far to many times for comfort. Not sure if the new route was a help or a hindrance. Brilliant organisation and atmosphere but not a pb course for anyone running over 3:30

In short: Starts the festive season off with a bang
In full: Was it just my impression but are less and less people making the effort to do this in fancy dress each year. Even so some of those that did made the whole thing worth while, gorillas chickens and the usual festive costumes all made an appearance
