2010 Great Welsh Marathon
 | | Overall score | | 100% | | Would you do it again? | | Yes | | | | Details: | | Scenery | | 100% | | PB potential | | 100% | | Atmosphere | | 100% | | Organisation | | 100% | | Value | | 100% | | Beginner-friendliness | | 100% |
In short: Perfect conditions for a perfect event In full: Although a small number of runners this felt like a much bigger event and everything was top class.
Many thanks to the organisers for providing us with a marathon in South Wales - I hope some of the negative criticism in the ratings and them from doing a great job. There are not many who can put on a fantastic event like this and we runners need more of them.
Also many thanks to all the volunteers you were brilliant especially those in the last six miles.
I will be back in 2011 Date of review: April 19, 2010
