In short: Useless marshals! No organisation at the start or finish.
In full: This was the 3rd time I've run this race but this year the organisation was very poor, the start was poorly organised, there was 2 hour plus runners right at the front and people that were sub 90 min trying to get through from the back, why have different bibs if you can start anywhere. Also running through the market area there was a 2ft metal post right in the path of runners with no warning. Lots of poeple nearly running right into it. There was a marshal stood about 5 metres away just chatting away oblivious! They have also changed the route every year so far, they need to sort a route and stick to it. I live in Birmingham and would have loved to give this race good reviews but it was poor, next year they need some experienced race directors to get this race back on course as it could be so good.
