In short: Challenging especially with the winds but lovely scenery to distract
In full: Definately a challenge, especially with the wind. After finishing i thought "never again" although having woken up the next day i think "maybe" if i want a challenge but not for a pb. My main complaint is that they were giving out kitkats at the end however as i got there the box was empty and a marshall wouldnt let me wait while the cadets opened the next box. I was really looking forward to that kitkat after battling the winds for the last 3 miles. On the plus side, well organised, easy to park, seemed to be enough toilets, baggage storage well organised. Maybe more signs from j16 to car park.

In short: Looking forward to this race all year - didnt disappoint
In full: Really excellent race - well organised, nice goodie bag (although maybe add reflective bits to tshirt). Loved the kids squirting water over the runners at the water stops as it was quite hot. Great support in the little hamlets en route. Definately will be in the calendar for next year.
