In short: First high profile race.Very well organised.
In full: With so many people,I'm surprised to see mp3s allowed.Several people bumped into me and several people cut me up,lucky not to trip me up.Lots of people were friendly and lots did not have mp3s.But with so many people close together there is the potental for a pile up.Finish and bands/dancers were Great.
