In short: Puts Reading on the map!
In full: Really good race, few problems at the start which could be improved. Crowd around the course and in the stadium were just awesome, why runners need headphones I do not know. Those with headphones on are missing out BIG TIME ! Enjoyed my beer at the Nags Head on Russell Street and still managed a PB !

In short: A great race organised by the Bedford Harriers
In full: A really nice race, good mix of abilities and a great race to finish the year. There were lots of marshalls at the start and all the way around the course who were very supportive, so thanks goes out to you. A couple of up hill sections and a great down hill at 9 ish miles. I will try and do this again at some point as I was impressed with the whole feel of this race.

In short: Total Rubbish, the worst value for money ever !!
In full: £45 for what !! Very poor, not many marshall's, rubbish finish for runners and spectators, crap goodie bag, not enough people handing goodie bags out, bland medal with no date, long walk to meet and greet area, long walk to park and ride and then a massive que for the buses. The route was bland in places, a race I will be leaving off my calender !!

In short: Great value, with superb marshalls and goody bag !!
In full: First time for me running the Gosport Half, not the most scenic of courses. This however is my only negative. The course is quick and flat and ideal for PB setters and those taking on their first half marathon. would I do it again ? YES. The marshalls were great, very supportive to all and helpfull pre-race. The goody bag was great value, not sure how they do it when tsI only £14/£16 to enter !! I will be back again next year for sure.
