In short: A very well organised race, on a flat course
In full: A well organised race on a flat course. Plenty of drink stations and plenty of places from which relatives and friends can cheer you on. Quite a few curbs and pavements to negotiate, otherwise a good course. Plenty of marshalls.

In short: Very good, relatively flat course
In full: Very good flat course over 2 laps makes for PB potential. However my (and others) Garmins measured the course at 15.25 miles.
Well orgainised race, although a little flat on atmosphere.

In short: Well organised race on a quick course (if the wind does not blow)
In full: This was a very will organised race. The water stations were just at the right places. Could have had more toilets at the start. The course is very flat, other than between 10 & 13 and 23 & 26 miles. If the wind does not blow then there is definate PB potential. As the weather was good I achieved a PB and GFA qualification for London next year.

In short: Very Good Race, Nice Relatively Flat course
In full: Nice race, run at a nice time of year. The course is relatively flat so a PB is possible, which I achieved. As the race is run over 2 laps, you pass the start and finish at 7 1/2 miles, allowing you to see your friends and family half way round. Well organised. A race I would definately do again.

In short: Well organised race, on a good but not flat course.
In full: A well organised race on a undulating course, although no steep hills. Glad to see plenty of water stations. A bit worried at start, when eventhough the road was closed, 3 cars drove through as we were about to start. Overall a good summer half marathon.

In short: Well organised race. Tough course but nice finish
In full: Very organised race, although not a course where you will achieve a PB easily. A few hills to contend with, however nothing really steep. Downhill for most of last 3 miles. Really enjoyed the race.
