In short: A great event to part take in.
In full: This was my first 1/2 marathon, and what an event to take part in. Crowds along the streets, in the parks, and plenty at the finish area.

In short: An excellent event all round.
In full: The scenery might not be the best (and it could be a lot worse), but the organisation, and marshalling is excellent. A good all round event with something for everyone!

In short: Just a great event
In full: I entered this on the day, but the whole organisation was great. Entry on the day was spot on, start area was on a field with loads of space. The marshalling all round the course was brilliant with pleanty of cheers from them all. The finiah back at the sports playing fields with a nice goodie bag. Nothing excessive, but a little more than the T shirt. Deffo beginner friendly.

Only down side was no clear indication that the start was made....no gun or siren! Small comment on a excellent event.

In short: Good , well organised race on a nice flat course.
In full: This was a very well ornagised club event. Even thou I arrived late, it was sign posted for car park, and then to the start area. Large area for all to warm up and watch. Lots of club runners, but I didn't feel too out of pace.

Copurse was flat, well marshalled and a good overall course I feel for all level of runners.

In short: Nice race, maybe better pre race organisation could be better!
In full: A nice little race around a park. The track was a mix of road and grass, so was very slippery today. The pre race organisation could have been better. Thats the only -ve thing to say!
