In short: Got a PB, so that was good. Not very friendly.
In full: I run at 11 minute miles, obviously I came in close to the end, the lack of support from other runners and marshalls was positivly depressing. I finished and felt completely deflated. When I run I always say hi or smile to other runners and always wait at the end to support the last finishers. This race was definatly for the top notch runners, slow runners not welcome. I went to collect my bag from secure storgae, only nobody there, not so secure. A couple of times I had to ask the marshalls the way as they failed to point the direction. On the roads, the cars were pretty fast on the way back and a couple of times I had to nose dive into the verge so I didn't get flattened. I have learnt my lesson and will stick to charity runs until I can beak the 7 minute mile mark.

In short: This is where the hill training pays off!!
In full: I was put off by this race not being traffic free, but the marshalls managed the traffic exceptionaly well and it was never a problem. A great, well organised run and very friendly.

In short: A lovely run spoilt with poor organisation and muserable marshalls.
In full: ^ toilets for 700+ runners is not good, no loo roll, no soap to wash your hands and quite dirty.
The course is nice but not one person cheered or clapped, no encouragment and a few catty coments from a marshall at the end. Not one I would choose to do again.

In short: Amazing event, I will always enter this one. Organisers wereso friendly and made the day the best . Fast route with some wicked hills and puddles. .
In full: My first race and my best. Other runners were friendly and the atmosphere was friendly and relaxed. If you srtuggle someone is there to cheer you on and get you motivated. The best I've done out of 20 other events.
