In short: A very tough first half-marathon
In full: Undulating is not the word, it was lots of steep hills, virtaully no flats. For my first half marathon I found it hard being on my own for long stretches towards the rear of the running pack, there were times when I had to guess which way to go as there weren't marshalls at every corner. Marshalls at water stations very friendly, refilled my bottle and the sponge stations were welcome, glad to see the race organisers had foreseen it would be the hottest day of the year!
