In short: Good race, shame about the wind!
In full: Would have been nice if toilets near car park were open. Marshalls allowed cars to park too close behind our car and if the people in front of us hadn't been leaving, we'd have been boxed in.

Nice course, but a shame about the wind, it really sapped alot of energy from alot of people!

Lovely, unusual medal and nice goody bag too. Still achieved a PB but that blooming wind lost me another couple of minutes and the volume of people at the beginning over-estimating their finish times didn't help.

In short: Lovely, friendly race
In full: Due to injury this race was a little painful and I achieved a personal worst. I now have unfinished business and will be back next year!

Big thank you to all the marshalls and drinks volunteers. Excellent medal and goody bag.

In short: A nice course with another PB to redeem the poor start
In full: Turned away from a 'full' carpark which clearly had spaces. Long queue for toilet resulted in a sprint for the start! However, a nice course with shelter from the wind and fantastic marshalling. Last year the hills seemed like mountains, this year molehills!

In short: Excellent support from marshalls & drink stations.
In full: I think a few marshalls were telling fibs, I'm sure I wasn't 'looking good' after 15 miles but thanks for the compliment!

I was a bit surprised at the impatience and speed of some drivers, but thats beyond control.
