Wow what a race! Starting outside the MK Dons stadium, right next to KFC, the route takes up in to the centre of Milton Keynes, before heading back down to the older parts and through the redway network. My only issue with the course was a narrow twisty section through a park near the end. After this section, it's a short blast back to the stadium before the best bit.... THE STADIUM FINISH!!! Running round the edge of the pitch with the crowd cheering is incredible! You can't not up the pace for a sprint finish! I crossed the line in 3:42:49, taking 28 minutes off of my previous PB. This is s highly recommended race from me
