In short: Excellent race - lovely scenery - have already entered for 2013!
In full: Lovely race - got a pb despite falling over on the gravel path at mile 5! thank you to the 2 ladies who helped me back up again. perfect weather for the seafront - cold but not windy/rainy like it normally is! will definitely be back next year.

In short: fabulous race but tough with the wind and rain
In full: enjoyed the off road sections and proudly showed off my mud splattered legs when i finished! the wind made it tough going but still enjoyed it - mostly traffic free which is always good. lovely and warm in the pyramids for before and after the race - the bar was open too!

In short: Brilliant race - really festive - will definitely be back next year. Merry Christmas
In full: love this race - really enjoyed the new 10k route - even the bit on the beach which was tough! not sure about the blue santa suits - i wore my red one from last night but may buy my own for next year! That's dedication! Will definitely be back next year - well done Rob. I love the medal but agree with the previous comment regarding t-shirt - nice touch but would rather the money from them went to the RNLI.

In short: Fantastic organisation and scenery but last 200 (including me!) had no momento at the finish line as they had 'run out' - very poor show i think! All that work to come away with nothing! Very disappointed
In full: Fantastic scenery, some hills to keep you on your toes - the organisation was fantastic (some road closures (although more would be better!), cheerful marshalls all round the course, loads of water stations with sponges too - fantastic). Having no momento left at the finish line for the last 200 runners left a bitter taste in the month especially when i was told that it was because they ran about because they had so many entries on the morning - so 200 missed out because those that couldn't be bothered to enter before the day took home the medals - especially when i'd entered 6 months ago! I'd run the race with my niece on her first half marathon and we were gutted not to walk away with our momento - especially as we'd seen them before the race and loved the gold trainer momento! That said, we will be back next year if they can sort out this problem. Would rather pay an extra bit so they had ordered enough to cover any last minute entries or just don't let late entries take home the momento on the day and give to those that had pre-registered only! Excellent race - apart from the finish!

In short: Hot, hot, hot - lovely race/scenery through the forest
In full: Possibly benefit from an earlier start time due to the heat - was boiling and running in midday sun not good! Thank you to all the marsalls and the man at the 5 mile drink point with the hose!

In short: excellent organisation & atmosphere - lovely views
In full: very well organised but a slight lack of ladies toilets. lovely views of sea and countryside. water stop on a tight corner was a bad move though - couldn't get near it! will be back next year

In full: Loved the helicopter the beginning, the snow machine, the 500 santas (including the dogs and children). Brilliant fun and for a good cause too. Will definitely do it next year!
