In short: Put simply its now too big!
In full: This isn't really a race, its more an event. At no point was I actually able to get into a stride - was tripping over people all of the way. People were walking right from the begining and not being realisitc about what their times would be. Silly thig is - if I was to do it again I wouldn't now be realstic about my time, but stand as far up to the front as I could - and so the porblem gets worse. Something seriously need to be done about this element of the race.
I have to say i had no difficulties with the baggage buses and thuoght this aspect of the race was excellent.

In short: A really good race, that seems to get more popular by the year. The atmosphere makes for a good beginners event.
