Good

Separate runners from spectators. It can get very crowded at the finish. Accident waiting to happen. Have a family reunion area starting from A finish at Z.

Tough but brilliant

I had done the Cyprus Marathon in Paphos on the 3rd of March 2024. So this tested my recovery

Fantastic race, tough hills and wind

As I have Boston marathon in three weeks, this was the perfect warm-up race which was why I wanted a hilly race

Testing first half but rewarding finish

Wise to train for hills as there are some long ones.

A hard race with those ‘flat ‘ hills but the crowds and support all the way around is simply amazing. Well organised , had some nice little stands with clothes etc. A fabulous day out for everyone.

Hilly half marathon with a finish along the beachfront

Please have better signage to the toilets
