In short: My local City race and 2nd year I have ran it.
In full: Car parking was terrible, traffic queues for 40 minutes and we were an hour and a half early. Traffic leaving was just as bad. Couldn't find the shuttle bus afterwards and by the 100s walking and the half full bus that I did see arriving showed that most other runners struggled to locate them too. Goody bag was pointless. The good bits? Medal was superb again, crowds are great, Castle grounds and race village good, more ice cream vans needed. Loads of pubs, restaurants etc at the finish. A favorite because the feeling I got from finishing it for the 1st time was something else. I will run it again but I might make it a marathon by running there and back instead of getting stuck in a traffic queue of 5000 people trying to get parked on a football pitch.

In short: Parking was well organised after potential water logged car parks warning. medals a nice touch but no T shirt as advertised on application form. 2 water stations enroute the 1st early enough to be well appreciated. L

In full: Great medal but goody bag and t-shirt not so good. Well organised on the day although parking uneccessarily slow. No web site update ever.
