In short: It's London , who could fail to love it
In full: This was probably my first and last Marathon mainly because its a really long way is 26 miles. What a race, what a crowd. People say the last 6 miles are hard but by then I knew I was going to get my medal so I just plodded along. The crowds were truly amazing, the t shirt , medal , water stops, organization were perfect. I really liked it.

In short: Nice countryside lots of places to run and a few water tunnels
In full: I liked this event for my first trail type run. It was about 6-7 miles but had great stretches to run plus ropes, tunnels , nets and mud. Nice medal and t shirt and well organized. Thanks

In short: Round and a round and around ..........boring zzzzz
In full: What a boring course. I've no interest in F1 so couldn't care less if I run through the pit stops. Crowds at mile one and crowds at mile 12 and nothing but wind in between . Yuk

In short: Ouch ! And where did all that mud and water come from
In full: This was tough by anybody's standards. Well organized and uplifting but tough. So much mud it sucked my trainer off and at one point the water came up to my neck. A brilliant t shirt and the best looking medal you are likely to receive. Go ahead if you think you're hard enough !

In short: Brilliant 1st Half for the folks of Ealing. Well done organisers
In full: Really liked the route, organisation, medal, friendly marshalls, lovely park to start and end. Plenty of water stations. Warm friendly locals. I would recommend this race for a half marathon first timer. Baggage was smooth, plenty of loos. Top marks to Race Director. Thank you

In short: Nice route , nice shirt and medal. Organization at finish needs serious re work
In full: Good first time 10k if you like massive crowds. Lots of people missed out on goodies. Race pack arrived in good time and chip worked. A serious flaw had to be the "help yourself" to medal at the end. Demeaning, tacky and was bound to end in disaster with shortages. Not for me I am happy to report.
