In short: Frost bitten fingers!!!
In full: The baggage area was a shambles. People could of dies from hyperthomia waiting for their bags. I was back in the top 300, so the majority of bags were stacked in a nice big pile. Luckily, after about 15mins, someone moved a bag and I spotted mine under it. I know they couldn't control the weather, but it was expected, and better provisions should of been made. However, the crowds were fantastic considering the appalling conditions, altho running the route the other way round would of been better, and lets cross the road, instead of going under the subway. Think I'll still prob sign up for next year, as it was a nice course, loveley and flat. I still set a new pb.
