In short: Lovely race, relaxed, muddy - made me smile. Good marshalls In full: The previous few days weather had made the terrain wet and muddy (thought I was going to loose a shoe at one point).
Course was a nice mix - especially as it was my first trail race.
The marshalls were great - lots of encouragement & warnings on boggy parts of the course.
Would definatelty do it again and think about the challenge. Date of review: June 25, 2012

2011 BHF Blenheim Palace Half Marathon
 | | Overall score | | 60% | | Would you do it again? | | Yes | | | | Details: | | Scenery | | 80% | | PB potential | | 40% | | Atmosphere | | 60% | | Organisation | | 60% | | Value | | 40% | | Beginner-friendliness | | 60% |
In short: Good but could do with improvements In full: There appeared to be a great deal of confusion at the event. On arriving at Blenheim (on foot) we found it difficult obtain any information and direction from the marshalls - not even knowing where the start line was.
The marshalls were reasonably good & the show ws a nice touch on such a hot day. However the marshalls didn't seem over enamoured towards the later stages in the race and infact at one point a rather large volunteer was happily blocking half of the pathway & smoking a large cigarette exhaling directly into the path of the runners. A number of people around me seemed to be equally afronted at his behaviour.
I was very disappointed at the medal - which was a generic BHF medal I would expect from any 10k run. I thought that they should at least have made an effort to mark the race.
