In full: Fairly scenic route, hills challenging but not too terrible. Marshalls were great, organisation smooth. Energy drinks were nice to have on course but distribution in large, unlidded bottles caused unnecessary waste.

In full: Good run, fairly even (albeit muddy)terrain. Marshalls were friendly and encouraging all the way round. Minute of remembrance silence before the start was appreciated as well.

In short: Good organisation for large crowd!
In full: Lovely run, well organised with friendly marshalls. Started promptly and plenty of drinks en route.
Loved seeing the Cat in the Hat running through central London. Good crowd support and special thanks to the lady handing out jelly babies around mile 9!

In short: Amazing scenery, once you get up the hill
In full: A fantastic event - beautiful scenery after tough uphill start. Excellent organisation, family friendly too.
Could have used more toilets though....

In full: Great scenery, friendly crowd and lots of encouragement all the way around. Hills were not as bad as anticipated, even for a beginner like me.
The 1k fun run was enjoyed by the children - a family event we'll be attending next year.
However, the organisers ought to book more toilet trailers when arranging 2010.
