In short: Great Event ruined by the organisers
In full: The event as a marathon is fantastic in its location and scenery. Challenging, the hill at mile 23 into Egleton is a heartbreaker. Event the awful weather didn't detract from the wonderful setting.

However, organisation on the day was sloppy and not very welcoming, goody bag was pointless, technical vest has gone in the charity bag and a Certificate instead of a medal was an insult.

Not one of Fat Feet's finest days, especially as they have not responded to any e-mails regarding issues with the race. I will avoid their events in future.

In short: Nice try, could be a great race....
In full: All has been said before, start was a shambles as was getting out of the car park.

However, was a great race and will become a part of my annual race calender. Nice to see a race in northampton, I think with some good organisation this could be a fantastic race.

Medal was quite nice as well!!!

In short: Was harder going than I expected from a pretty flat race, the bridges and locks take it out of you...

In full: It's been said several times already, and will be said again, but "WAS THAT WINDY OR WHAT??????". My first 1/2 marathon since GNR07 and 1:45 felt great. Let's just not invite the wind next year hey guys!!!!
