In short: very very hot In full: My first race over any distance (so I got a PB!) Seemed extremely well organised, marshalls in all the right places and just enough water stations. The hills were either not steep or not long so weren't as bad as I imagined before hand. Crowd were encouraging at the end, and thanks to the man with the hosepipe sprinkler and the noisy band at the stage where I was suffering most and needed perking up. Only bad thing was being overtaken in the last 100m by a bloke wearing a padded dress and stockings who didn't seem to be trying very hard. Date of review: July 4, 2006
