In short: Very challenging with fantastic camaraderie between runners
In full: Very challenging due to ice, snow, mist and the climb up Pen y Fan. The conditions couldn't have been any worse, however, this added to the occasion. The camaraderie between runners was the best I have ever experienced. A must do for those looking for a serious challenge.

2010 Cardiff Half Marathon

In short: Enjoyable run on a fast course. Some issues to iron out.
In full: Overall a great course. Would suggest stricter controls at start with regards to anticipated run times (colour coordinate bibs with pens).
A bit too congested in some areas in the first 3 miles, but this could be remedied with the above suggestion.
The finish was harsh (despite the short cut). I don't expect many people enjoyed doubling back on themselves.
