In short: Disappointing, expected more.
In full: After thinking about this race for years I eventually entered, and was looking forward to it. Unfortunately I was disappointed. Only 5 loos for 500+ people made for long queues and delayed the start by 15 minutes. The run along the Thames was pleasant, but the return along the streets of Kew had the runners dodging coach loads of people going in to Kew Gardens. The marshalls were enthusiastic, but there could have been more along the route, especially close to the rowing club where the boats were being taken across the path to the river. On the positive side the beer glass is a nice keepsake, and the text message with time and position is a great idea.

In short: Best race in the country, in my opinion!
In full: Couldn't fault this race at all. Fantastic scenery, well-organised and great goodie bag at the finish. Will be there next year. Naturists walking along the beach gave the race an almost surreal ending!
