In full: For the second year running, scorching temperatures! Enjoyed the race (kind of!) but got a personal worst. A big thanks to all the locals out with their hosepipes! My only two moans 1: pathetic number of portaloos 2: it took half an hour to get out of the carpark at the end (no marshalls so it was a free-for-all). I'll be back next year!

In full: Definitely undulating but still managed a PB! Well organised and excellent spectator support. Was impressed by the mini water bottles but glad i'd taken my own bottle because there didn't seem to be quite enough water stations. Really enjoyed the mix of running through the city and through the parks.
