In short: Best Race There Is
In full: I've run 100s of races of varying distances over the years. This is the one I come back to year after year. The combination of scenery the challenging accents (although I'm prepared for the 3-6 mile hill the one at 18m gets me every time), exciting decents and stunning scenery make this the perfect race (and worth the miles I have to travel to get there). As well as all that it's provides a great pre-London warm up. Not usually one for voicing my opinion on forums but this race is fully justified in the ratings it receives.

In short: Late start due to EOD but made up for by pleasant scenary and fact that it felt like it was downhill most of way (even though finish was at same point as start).

In short: Notoriously one of the hardest halfs but worth the effort.
