2012 Hastings Lions Half-Marathon
 | | Overall score | | 80% | | Would you do it again? | | Yes | | | | Details: | | Scenery | | 60% | | PB potential | | 60% | | Atmosphere | | 80% | | Organisation | | 80% | | Value | | 60% | | Beginner-friendliness | | 60% |
In short: 2011,2012 and plan on returning in 2013
In full: Ran this for the first time in 2011, found the hills tougher than I expected. Returned in 2012 better prepared and knocked 11mins off my previous time. The crowds are supportive but agree that some of the "nearly at the top" comments could disappoint/hamper runners who've not seen the course before. All in all a well organised event, my wife and two young son's also enjoyed their day at the coast so we'll all be back next year!
If you're thinking about running a half marathon, definitely consider Hastings. Just be ready for the uphills and you'll enjoy your day.
