In short: Great fun!
In full: My first-ever half marathon, and I loved it!! Helped by gorgeous weather and great support from marshalls and locals.
One slight criticism: I think the race booklet is a bit intimidating to beginners, and it nearly put me off doing it.

In short: Great race, the hills made it fun and interesting.
In full: Fantastic!! I've just finished it and I'm as high as a kite! My 3rd race ever and great fun. Tough hills in first half, then fast downhill second half. Great views from the top, friendly, well organised. I usually run off-road, but would definitely do this one again.

In short: Thoroughly enjoyed it! Hills, and plenty of mud to make it interesting!
In full: This was my very first 10K (2nd ever race) and I had a wonderful time. Blue skies, sunshine, snow on the ground, lovely scenery and LOADS OF MUD!! The mud and snow made the ascents and descents very interesting.
