In short: Excellent friendly, well organised event
In full: Debut event but wouldnt know it! Sports hall based facilities with loads of room and parking. Organisers and marshalls superb and very supportive, generous goody bag and lovely distinctive tropies. Ideal for first timers or seasoned athletes alike with a fast 2 lap course which is mildly challenging and predominantly traffic free. Highly recommended!

2011 Claire House Excalibur Marathon
| | Overall score | | 100% | | Would you do it again? | | Yes | | | | Details: | | Scenery | | 100% | | PB potential | | 20% | | Atmosphere | | 80% | | Organisation | | 80% | | Value | | 80% | | Beginner-friendliness | | 80% |
In short: Fantastic event on the glorious Clwydian hills, tough but very rewarding and well organised.
In full: A mixed terrain race, mainly off road with a large amount of ascent particularly in the second half of the race.Very well organised with staggered start times to prevent too many people on the course together- worked very well. Walkers as well as seasoned fell runners catered for with some excellent runners present and nivices alike. Plenty of water available on route with soup at half way and stew at the finish. Overall superb and I will definately be back.

In short: Disappointing and not up to standard
In full: Issues with course marking (not due to organisers)and lack of marshals meant many runners going the wrong way. results innacurate due to problems with the course. I was heading for a pb but ended up 2 minutes adrift after going the wrong way and covering 13.5 miles.
