In short: Excellent
In full: As I sit here eating a mars bar, bag of cheese and onion crips and drinking a can of coke it makes up for the fact my legs are still not speaking to me after posting a sub 4hrs in my first Snowdon marathon.
I've done a few VLM but will never do a big city race after doing this. The views, the route, the support, the organisation and the camaraderie were magnificent and this shows why it is the best marathon in the country.
Registration was effortless, the (small) expo was good value with no sales pressure, the T-shirt good quality.Race day itself we just rocked up at 10am (no pens or 2hrs get there for a warm up lark) walked to the start and were off, no crowding, friendly and plentiful drink stations, enjoyed running through the traffic in Beddgelert and an excellent eye watering final 1.5mile descent into Llanberis for a warm hearted welcome. The nice slate coaster and a cup of coffee were well received.
I will be back in 2013!!!

In short: Very good race and PB easily achieveable.
In full: Enjoyed the race but not enough toilet facilities, very crowded in the baggage area.

Getting out after the race was a nightmare, took nearly an hour as exit was blocked.

However, volunteers very friendly and helpful and goody bag at the end was okay. Overall satisfied with the even and will definetly do it next year.
