In short: Excellent race, count me in for next year.
In full: Super little race, only 10 minutes from my doorstep, well organised, good atmosphere. Could have done with starting in expected time zones but thats being really picky.

In short: Tough conditions but well organised
In full: PB'd in a time of 1h 37m 30s so pleased, the hill at around 10 miles was tough but the largely downhill last mile made it good course in terms of terrain but if a little dull in scenery.

In short: A challenging course but a rewarding one - Crap goody bag!
In full: The course is on my doorstep and having done my training on the route (although at a slower pace) I found the race quite tough in places, more mentally as people kept stopping or slowing, but I kept it together and in my first ever Half marathon "race" I did a time of 1h 41m which was 3mins quicker than expected.
I only had to walk around the corner to the start line so logistically it was great for me, everything seemed well organised although as a guy with a shaven head the comb in the goody bag is of no use!!!

In short: Only my 2nd ever race, well organised, flat track, a 2nd drink station would be nice but that would be my only complaint.
