One of the best half's that I have ever done. Yes it was not a pb but the course was peaceful, scenic and a good range of gradients. The last hill up from the Brentwood Centre was not too bad. So pleased to drink from bottles not cups! Easy to keep hyrated. Throughout the run, I ...
One of the best half's that I have ever done. Yes it was not a pb but the course was peaceful, scenic and a good range of gradients. The last hill up from the Brentwood Centre was not too bad. So pleased to drink from bottles not cups! Easy to keep hyrated. Throughout the run, I felt as if I was part of a race that knew what it was doing. Well it has been going since 1982. Still has a strong community vibe

Great event. Took part 12/03/23 and was in awe of the organisers, marshals and local people who make this event so good. Ran it in 2014 and it's still a super half to take part in.

After running the 5km run for 4 years i upped to the Half as it was marathon year to get more miles in the legs.

This is my home town run and the first i ever ran with Dad and will always be special to me.

Second year in a row I have completed the Brentwood Half.  It is quite an enjoyable run but a lot of it is pretty remote so not a lot of support along the route.  Biggest plus this year was a change in the route towards the end avoiding a very busy road and routing us through quieter country villages.  Overall I would say it is a decent Spring marathon training run.
