In short: Another excellent Gibbet race
In full: Great marshalling and organisation as ever. Some comments previously that the coach journey was tedious but it is part of what makes this event different and entertaining - getting round those narrow lanes. Alternative might be a chinook?! Will definitely be back!

2010 The Farnham Pilgrim Marathon
| | Overall score | | 100% | | Would you do it again? | | Yes | | | | Details: | | Scenery | | 100% | | PB potential | | 40% | | Atmosphere | | 80% | | Organisation | | 80% | | Value | | 80% | | Beginner-friendliness | | 80% |
In short: Well organised, well signposted and loads of marshalls
In full: Excellent race with lovely scenery if you stopped to look and marshalls at all the points they were needed. Think that the person who decided we should run up and around the ruins of the chapel at Artington might have a slightly twisted sense of humour though! A bit of a shame that the technical t-shirt had no details about the date and distance, but all-in-all a great race with a nice atmosphere.

2009 Isle of Wight Marathon and Half

In short: Normally good race but poor organisation
In full: Start not as well organised as last year. What was going on at the finish, I was through it before I knew it was there and had to be stopped by my team mates. May have cost me a HRRL place as I was sitting on someones shoulder for a final kick. I heard finish was moved due to being wrongly directed up the first hill, but not sure. GPS suggested it was quite a bit short of 10 miles anyway.
