Signed up for this race as a lead up to London and was dreading it when I realised it was laps! But it's a pretty country course so it didn't get repetitive and then laps meant there was decent support and plenty of water and jelly babies. Marshals were excellent and plenty of them. attractive medal and well fitting technical tee mean this race is very good value. My only gripe was they'd run out of bananas by the time I finished and I was mid pack!
