I found the course really tough, well marked and marshalled but a bit beyond my capabilities. Felt great that I finished it though.

Was my first half marathon. Really great atmosphere. Everything about the race was well organised - could have done with a bit more signposting getting onto the grounds and knowing where to go for the actual race

to start with following the postcode on satnav led us to a field, directions would have been appreciated. Once we found the right place the lack of signage led us to park at the birds of prey centre, where the event parking was closer to the start. Once at the start no-one made any effort to point is in the direction of registration, at registration I was ignored by several people who were just chatting amongst themselves. In all a terrible first impression of your event. The positives are that the route was great and well marked, marshals were friendly and there was a nice welcome at the end. Shame no drinks were provided on such a hot day though.

Meat right over finish, medals and food. Mostly roads and dry gravel.paths. it was red hot and yet been sprayed with water which increases the risk of burning. No vegan options and only one non alcoholic option. 2 ladies at start were fantastic, other marshells were disinterested.

It was very hot. Too hot! I really struggled on the last hill. I don't know how everyone else managed it. Overall, I really enjoyed it and look forward to doing it again next year. Thank you to all the marshalls.
