In short: Fabulous !!
In full: Wow, first time Tunbridge Wells Half for me. Loved it, well worth the drive around M25.
Organisation, exemplary
Scenary, everything you could ask for
Support, fantastic encouraging crowds everywhere
Marshalls, simply the best....thank you
It is for me comparable to the Great North Run, but with a big hill at 7 - 8 mile.
Superb medal (30yrs celebration) & great t-shirt
I'll be back !!!

In short: WOW, loved it. London can learn from you
In full: What a great day. Hot & hotter, but we have just had our summer !!! Spectators were just amazing...THANK YOU. The drinks stations were really well organised and bottled water & Powerade.
Just a few points, that have already been covered, but do need looking at please.
Park & Ride. After parking at 0750, didnt have a bus until 0820, arrived Preston Park 0840.
More buses needed, seemed only 2 d/deckers covering route.
The route through Shoreham. Thought I was running through a Peter James novel !!! Any chance of running through Hove and loop back to promenade for finish ??
Apart from that....WOW...well done Brighton. Forget London, I will be back to soak up the fab atomsphere, bands, encouragement and a sun tan !!!
Thanks for all my friends, colleagues & my partner for such tremendous support.
This was my 4th marathon, but I still never fail to sob at the end !!!
A truly wonderful experience.

In short: A different type of run
In full: Very well organised race. Like earlier comment the steps up from canal proved interesting at 7 miles. But all in all great race and will be back. Watford 1/2 next, with on-going training for Brighton Marathon, so this race ticked all the boxes after some mundane road beating.

In short: Got touched up by a witch !!!!
In full: Midnight race through Brighton, with Halloween parties banging on the seafront.......superb !!!
Good organisation, with good marshalling and plenty of water en-route.
