In short: very fast flat race
In full: this is a flat race that is perfect for anybody.
half of it is run by the river, even though it could get very narrow if there are lots of people. very good goodies at the end and an early start make it perfect.
would do this again

In short: a good race, but for me to many ups and downs
In full: on such an awful day, when it rained the whole time, the organiser did do a good job, there were still plenty of people cheering you on.

In short: was alot better then i thought it was going to be
In full: i couldn't thought the brighton marathon,
as i started near the front, there seemed to be plenty of room to move, i thought the roads were wide enough.
the whole day went great, the weather was perfect, we had strong winds between about miles 7-10, because it was so open.
there were plenty of people everywhere cheering you on, a very good race.
and will do again

In short: good race, pity you couldn't see finish line
In full: this is the third time i've done this race now in 3 years and my time has improved everytime,
it has great scenery and a couple of hills, which makes the races worthwhile.
i like this race, but again couldn't see the finish line, and the lack of anything at the end apart form a medal.
will do it again if it is in my plans for marathon training

In short: well organised
In full: it was very multi-terrained , road,path,mud,shingle, but very enjoyable
plenty of water stops ,by the sea for most of the run ,good chance of a pb, as i got a pb by 14 minutes and the burger,coffee and mince pie i got at the end was worth it with the nice medal as well
