Did this as my first half marathon and really enjoyed it. Varied route - about half was canal towpaths and then some road and some trail.

Great organisation on the day but 4 of us joined and we had 3 different pieces of info in the email beforehand - re parking and timings - some of us had a new email with ‘correct version’ and some of us didn’t! But on the day the food was ace and the people wonderful and well mapped route so thanks would definitely do again!!

Absolutely brilliant. Really interesting, well planned route with lots of variety of terrain, fantastic supportive marshals, friendly fellow runners and incredible array of goodies awaiting you at the finish line. My first half marathon and first time doing an IGUN race but will definitely do others.

Better route that I was expecting. Relatively flat with a cheeky hill in the middle
