In short: Great race but organisation needs improving.
In full: Having travelled the 90 miles to do this race it was dissapointing to have a delay at the start. I was like a coiled spring ready to go at 10am. It was a good five minutes after this that we heard that the start was delayed. Maybe the fact that numbers and chips had to be collected on the day contributed to the delay ??
Apart from that a cracking course with a few challenging hills. Well marshalled. I do wish that the course could be modified to take out the sharp climb at the beginning and descent at the end. Its congested at the beginning and having had some rain on it this time it was harzardous getting down... not easy to stay on your feet. Having said all that I'd probably do it again !!

In short: Superbly organised race, Well marshalled and a great goody bag / sweatshirt at the end.
In full: An undulating course making it a testing 20 miler. If you can tackle this and come through without too much pain the flat streets of London will be a doddle !!

In short: Very well organised undulating half marathon through woodland lanes. Traffic free. Only passed by one van. Nice dip in open air swimming pool afterwards. Would def do it again. not a PB course.
