In short: Sun, Sea and Scenery In full: Fantastic setting, wonderful weather and overall a good race. The race was advertised as flat but by definition it had hills- maybe if you come from a hilly area you don’t think so but for those of us who run real flat courses with no undulations at all this was a challenge and definitely not PB material. Got the feeling that the local population was not too impressed apart from one fantastic lady who had Buddhist prayer flags out flying, and jelly babies for us. Great. This was a memorial race for us and the one overall big disappointment was that lack of slate medal which was advertised when we entered (months ago). Cheap plastic bottle just doesn’t do it for us. We helped a young man at the end who was running his first half ever, and thought how sad to have no real memento for his fantastic achievement. Date of review: May 14, 2012
