Tough course through lovely country lanes. The view across the valley towards the cathedral with about a mile to go makes all those hills worth it. One word of warning,nothing much going on for any spectators. So take everything you’re going to need with you.

Was a really enjoyable day. The course was challenging and not helped by being one of the hottest days of the year. There could have been a few more water stations but volunteers were great and the course was well signposted. Would run it again.

An enjoyable run. The course on an ordinary day would be challenging with the hills. However, with the blistering heat it was brutal at times. Thanks to the local home owners who sprayed us with their hoses and water pistols! A couple more water stations may have helped.
I left with lots of time to spare but both Google maps and Imaps took us to the nearest point on the dual carriageway and didn't recognise the parking locations. Had no time to stretch etc. Just beware for next year!
Maybe an option for a bespoke t-shirt as some of us collect tshirts and not medals. We'll done to all who completed it!

Don’t get me wrong this was a great half marathon, the support from locals was superb with hosepipes and sweets and encouragement. My issue was the water stations were lacking in that the cups were only half filled with water and considering it was nearly 30’ this could have been dangerous. There also were not enough stations. I’m sure it wasn’t just me who finished it feeling very dehydrated. I will be back next year, I think I will probably wear a hydration vest though which I have never done for a half marathon (or a full) before.
