In short: Good atmosphere and very friendly.
In full: Water cups are fine for half marathons, but is a poor show for the full marathon, there were more toilets dotted around than there were water stations! I expect to bring my own energy drinks/gels but in the that kind of heat better water provisons must be provided, preferably water bottles!!!

In short: Wet Wet Wet. Despite that good PB potential oon slightly troublsaome hill at 11 miles other wise nothing too scary. Race finish could have been re-thought out due to the weather
