In short: Third consecutive running of this excellent half marathon.
In full: Very well organised half marathon which, for good reason, has become very popular. Undulating but still a quick course. Better start this year than 2011.Great Marshalling and pretty good local support considering a lot of race is rural. Pity about the strong gusting wind that made the going tough at times. Would thoroughly recommend this race and hopefully will be at the start line in 2013.

In short: fourth year running this race-as good as ever. Weather perfect for once
In full: Have run this race for four consecutive years and hoping for a fifth next year. Lovely feel good 10k race which has a flat course so is quick-especially when no snow/ice on the ground. Great atmosphere and good organisation. Nice tech t-shirt again this year-very much appreciated. Only disappointment was the lack of portaloos this year but this didn't detract from a great post christmas run which i whole heartedly recommend.

In short: very good marathon course. Mildly undulating with great atmosphere. would do it again.
In full: Thoroughly enjoyed this marathon. Route interesting-I've no idea how organisers managed to close so many major roads to cars:well done organisers. Nice medal and long sleeved technical shirt and great goody bag. Atmosphere and support along route-a very well done to everyone in Chester. You've done yourself proud!
Three quibbles:
1. horrendous car park queue before start
2. Needs directional signs within racecourse
3. Marshals within racecourse were really friendly but only new info relating to their station and couldn't answermore general questions.
However, I don't want this to detract from what was a great event and would absolutely recommend it as one to do :-)

In short: great 10k in lovely setting and brilliant organisation
In full: A 10km race which is quick but didn't feel like a Pb course to me.Saying that, there were plenty there who did get one. Great weather and a lovely setting. Really impressed with organisation-for me couldn't be faulted. There was even chip timing! All in all, a great way to spend a Sunday morning!
