In short: Good fun, weather good, but lack of drinks - could do better
In full: Nice medal of Tonbridge Castle.

Excellent as the road was closed to traffic particularly speeding 4x4s and sports cars, like Porsches. There was ample warning in the local paper to keep them from mowing anyone down.

People kept their dogs under control which was also good and farmers got into the spirit.

Good goody bag with banana, excellent peanut bar, free gym and sports centre passes.The supporters in Leigh were brilliant and the marshalls.

Grateful to have the oranges. Some stations ran out of water, that was disappointing. I shared my drink with another runner as she was suffering.

It would have been good to have a Twitter site for the Marathon to see who else is doing it and discuss tips. Some kind of forum.

Good to include the Kent Air Ambulance in one of the charities, Was nice to see a helicopter at the start.

Not sure about the school band, would have preferred rap myself!
