Entered the half marathon cycle event last year at wolverhampton.Hopefully i'll be running the full marathon this year.There are three steady long climbs but nothing to worry about.The only drawback is the two laps which could get a bit boring.There were decent crowds all round the route and a nice start and finish at the city park.
ive got the same problem.my left foot goes numb after running for 35/40 mins.Im pretty desperate because im training for the london marathon.Went to see a physio who diagnosed the problem as scar tissue affecting the nerves.At the moment im having ultrasound treatment on my calf and have been told to do plenty of stretching.hope this might be of help too someone,although it hasnt helped me yet after two sessions with physio.at the momemt im running though the numbness which lasts about 15 mins and then completely disappears,which apart from being very uncomfortable is probably not a good idea
