In short: Still wonderful!
In full: I love everything about this race, encouraging marshals all the way round, wonderful scenery and a real bargain as well. Can't wait until next year when hopefully the weather will be a little calmer!

In short: Great training run for a Spring marathon
In full: I know 4 laps isn't for everyone and it isn't all that scenic in places but this is a well organised event, with great marshalls, which is ideal preparation for a Spring marathon. I think it is great as it encourages you to do the required 20 mile training run and you have all the support and water you need.

In short: It is the greta marshalls that really make this well organised event
In full: This was my third time at this event and will be back again in the autumn - although perhaps only for the 10! The organisation is great and to have such excellent parking so close to the start is rare, however, as ever with this race it is the enthusiastic and supportive marshalls who really make it - thank you and well done!

2011 Brighton Half Marathon

In short: So much more enjoyable than last year, but...
In full: This seemed like an entirely different race compared to last year, the organisation was good and a much better course. Having said that they have to sort out the start positions, I am not particularly fast but I immediately started running into people who had obviously positioned themselves amongst the 'elites' and were walking after a mile. If they are serious about expanding the numbers for next year then this does need to be resolved or chaos will certainly ensue!

In short: Nice course with a few 'lumps', shame about the delayed start..
In full: This is my local 10K and it is run through some nice woodland. Everything was looking good, the sun was out and the number collection went well but the delayed start, and lack of any communication, really let it down.

In short: Very welcoming for all abilities
In full: I ran the Spring version as part of my Marathon training and wanted to do it again because I enjoyed it so much. Better this time round given the change in start / finish position and despite the weather the Marshalls were great again. I do wonder if a number of people decided not to do it given the forecast but that was their loss as it actually only rained for 15 or so miles....
