In short: The new track is excellent compared to last year, well done!!
In full: But it is not necessary to put a couple of water stations in the bottom of up hills on this undulating track and the water station after finish was a disaster, it took 15 minutes before I got any water.

In short: A great pre-marathon race.
In full: A special thanks to the two guitar and singing entertainment marshals, they really made my day. A well working organisation, including real friendly marshals round the track. On the negative side was the uphill water station and it not seems to be a mile between the mile marks.
My wife sends a word; more toilets next time, please.
But overall a great race!!

In short: I will be back next year
In full: Hot and humid weather, they could have added a couple of water stations and have a bit longer gap between sponge and water out handing it felt a little stressful. Otherwise I have nothing to complain about. A great job from the organizers as usual!! Thanks!!
