In short: Very well organised scenic run. Great prep for a spring marathon
In full: Parking/organisation very good. Very well marshalled all way round. Crowds thin on the ground so you have to be very self motivated especially if you are doing the 20mile.
Positive: course, and organisation
Negative: start time (would prefer 9:30) and crowd support.

In short: Despite terrible weather, this was an excellent run very well marshalled.
In full: If you are looking for a good half/full marathon with great scenery, good course in respect of fast time and a very enjoyable long weekend away then this is for you.
The hills were not as bad as I thought with the straight and downhill sections more than making up for it. The marshalls did a fantastic job in horrible conditions and the crowd support was good considering. I'm going to be back next yr and hopefully can get my time under the 1hr40min mark (1hr42today!)
