Date:	05th Oct 2008
Distance:	1/2 Marathon

Type:	Road
Comments:	Lovely cool sunny day and the usual great support from locals combined to make it a memorable half. Such were the crowds that the usual 40 min drive from the finish to our accomodation was extended slightly to 3 hours 15 mins! Pros: Big race atmosphere & high profile event. Always a challenging run (see 'Cons') Cons: Very crowded,expensive always hotter than expected and unlikely pb potential (unless your pb isn't great!)
