In short: Flat, fast course, great spectators, terrible terrible weather!
In full: First time I have run Reading. High PB potential as course is largely flat / all roads. There is one shallow short hill about mile 2 for a third of a mile. Excellent support most of the way to mile 10 then you head out of the town and support dwindles. Lucozade and water at good intervals. I really enjoyed the event and smashed my PB. Downsides were that signage back to car park was poor, stewards could not direct me. Goody bag full of landfill (which I hate). But small gripes as thoroughly enjoyed it.

In short: Beautiful day, muddy underfoot, enjoyed it!
In full: A mix of cross-country and roads, largely flat. Well organised with good atmosphere. Country bits / mud make fast time tricky
