In short: Beautiful setting slightly let down by some poor planning
In full: Positive sides:
1. Beautiful park setting. Very enjoyable on the run.
2. Good family atmosphere. The 2km fun run is more family friendly for members with no training.
-------------------------------------

Down sides that need to improve...

1. More toilets were needed.
2. Awful medal. Half marathon and Fun run share the same design, no date on the medal either.
3. Delay meant that we were cooked for 20 minutes (on concrete!) before the race started .
4. (Some of the)Staff need to be more friendly. The woman who was guarding the race entrance seemed deaf to my question "Is there any toilet inside?" Come on woman! You were not even busy! Stop chatting while at work!
