In short: even the torrential rain could not spoil a great race
In full: Never done yhis one before but will be back next year. The rain was awful but in its way only added to the day I thought it was well organised race over a very good course and it gives a very good chance of a PB. I did not manage it myself but was only 1 minuet off my PB. Roll on the Liverpool half.

In short: a splendid race and look forward to doing it again
In full: Having read the other reviews I cant understand why some people are being so picky. This was a well organised event and as a first event I thought all those involved did a great job. As for the fun race then yes it maybe needs to start 5 mins after the 10k and I assume that the organisers will be thinking about this for next year. For those who complain of poor water stations then maybe you are not ready to be running a 10k, in those conditions there is no need whatsoever to be taking on water. The martials were all brilliant and the scenery is excellent. Someone mentioned that there were some hill, well yes there are but they are not what I would call a problem and come on why do some people expect a course with no hills? Will be back next year and if it was on next week then I would be pleased.

In short: a really great well supported race in a fantastic city
In full: Did this last year and will do it next year too but please if the big man upstairs is listening could you please arrange for a cooler day! The last two years that I have done it have been scorching. A great race made all the better by the fantastic people of Edinburgh and their superb support.

In short: what else can I add to other posts? very bad basic mistake spoilt what should have been a good race.
In full: At first I was rather angry as I was bang on for a personal best but after a couple of days I now feel sorry for whoever was not at the correct station in the park. If I feel bad just how must they feel. It has potential to be a decent race and I thought it was quite a fast course, ok one bigish hill but you are repaid by a long downhill and where I am from you cannot avois hills so they never worry me anyway. I hope they give it a go next year and take on board the critisism offered from this years event
