In short: It's the big one, but don't expect to get a PB
In full: The London Marathon is an amazing event, I've now done it twice and it's an incredible experience. However it is so congested in places that it is difficult to run at a consistent pace. My advice for what it's worth is if you're after a PB don't do London, but if you're afetr amazing day out that you'll never forget do London, the crowd support is so amazing it will actually move you close to tears, incredible day.

In short: Enjoyed it but far too congested and actually quite expensive for a half
In full: I ran this as training for the London Marathon mainly because although I live in London I have friends/family in Bath. I have to admit it's quite expensive for a "half" and I did find the route very congested, but the crowd support was amazing for a city half. Would consider again but price may put me off
