In short: good, organised race with no major difficulties
In full: I have also read some of the previous reviews and felt Cardiff was judged harshly. I had a belter of a time- the bag drop was ok, the atmosphere was friendly and the drinking stations were nothing to complain about, although they ran out of lucozade/sports drink at mile 8. The weather was great at least, surely the least organisable factor worked out well for the organisers? There were no signposts but that was taken care of with the brochure which told me what to do and where to go (?)

As for support, well, I wouldn't get up at 9 am to cheer lunatics running through Roath! The Barnados support group made a lot of nopise though. Medal was very nice-surely the most important part- and the goodie bag had some useful bits but agreed, apart from the t-shirt it was underwhelming. Course was flat-ish- can't believe minor bumps in the terrain are described by some as 'hilly' by some though.
