Comments: What a fantastic race. Seriously cold and windy, but beautiful sunshine on the south coast. 3,000+ foot of climbing on the route, all off road, but well signed and marshalled, slightly short of a full marathon distance, but expect normal marathon time + 30 mins if you're racing it. I stopped for tea, cakes, chats and photos, but still suffered along with everyone else in the last b*st*rd miles along the Seven Sisters. Then just as you hit the top of the last climb, you're hit by 25 mph winds right in your face. If you didn't laugh you'd have to cry. Fabulous friendly atmosphere, a lot of people even seem to run this one as their first marathon. I'll be back!
