My second half marathon and it was hotter than the first, which I didn't think was possible!! Really enjoyed the route and the support around the course, thing was running past the finish line with another mile & half to do. That last bit was brutal. Saying that I still managed to take a bit off my MK half time. (1.44.10) 

As this was the first year this race was held, I thought it all went pretty well. Few things that could improve next year are the toilet queue. Maybe the council could have helped by unlocking the public toilets. Which certainly would have helped. The second is the delay to the start still don't know why it was delayed as you couldn't hear the speaker further back. Lastly I am not sure if this is true or not but heard someone say that the marshals didn't have any way of communicating with other marshals.

Overall though really enjoyed it and would do it again.
