In short: Great Race !! .....
In full: A very well organised race with the benefit of on the day entry ! .... marshalling was first class and very friendly, a couple of tricky traffic crossings but these were well handled. A couple of challenging inclines but down hills to go with them. Very nice medal and practical goody bag !

Thanks !! A great race :)

In short: Excellent !!!
In full: Great well organised race.... Congested in places but nothing more than you would expect with so many runners. Good support especially in the town. My baggage tent was like clocwork dropping and collecting, great job !! (1-6000)however I did notice HUGE queues at the 6000+ tent, not sure what the problem was.

My suggestion for improvement would be to seperate the water and Lucozade stations more.

Great staff through the finish area... space blanket, super goody bag, nice medal and Lucozade drink & water.... couldnt want for more !

Well done everyone !!! :)

In short: Great Run
In full: Overall well organsied, start delay was no great biggie for me. Interesting to see why so many men needed the loo so early ... bad prep there guys ! .. also not very nice for the females amongst.

Course a little lifeless at times but again no great problem for me.

Well placed drink stations and well organised.

Like many others my Garmin measured the run slightly long at 13.37.

Goodie bag was fine by me. I know the T shirt is XL, but what do you guys expect when they are making up 10,000 bags .. we can hardly have a selection of sizes.. only alternative would be a voucher for a T shirt you could then choose a size. Cranberry Sauce a bit strange too !!

Will be back next year.

In short: A pleasant Day ..... Good experience for me working towards the 26.2 !
In full: A nice run .... bit of a killer hill ! but flat otherwise.... water stations left a lot to be desired and horrid tsate to the water as well.... not a prob to me as I carried a drink but could have been to others... ran out of water at the finish when I came through.... medal was a bit stingy considering the entry price. All round a reasonable day would return again next year.
