Appreciate for the runner-friendly flexibility. We could weather the mess from the storm!
Paramjit Bhogal
All round good
Tight bottle necks at beginning
Karen Hicks
Excellent
Disappointing goody bag at the end
Great run (my 3rd time!)
Good flat half marathon with nice river setting and modest attendance. Limited crowds and could do with more closed roads.
Why not cut out the first 2 mile loop and extend the route up the river to Teddington Lock instead. I didn't the residential bits that much. Lots of corners, curbs, parked cars etc take their toll after a while. Would be much nicer to stay closer to the river for longer.
Eva Hannaford
Great half marathon, flat and scenic course and all the Marshalls were super supportive and friendly
Candice Hayward
Great route, great organisation, great set up.
I have ran this 3 times before and 1 of the the reasons I like this half is because you're given a really decent T-shirt. There was no T-shirt this year which I'm super upset about. However saying that it's still my favourite course just sad I've no T-shirt this year.
Simon MacFarlane
Flat & Windy
Christine Anders
Very good event, well organised.
Chris Dunhill
Friendly, fast and frugal
Lovely race really - can't complain as I high-fived Henry VIII and got a PB to boot!
Goodie bag was VERY disappointing though: 3 rubbish sachets and two postcards?! What was the point in that? There was meant to be some kind of alcohol free beer in there according to the website but that never happened.
And no finishers' tee-shirt??? :-(
Otherwise good event though.
Fun event with a friendly crowd and good bling
I was a bit circumspect about the roads not being closed, but after the first couple of km, when the pack thinned out, it wasn't a problem at all. Nice and flat, well sign-posted and very well organised.
Sophie Frame
A well organised run.
Shame there was no t shirt this year
Buff was a disappointment
Brian Wiggins
Well organised considering the conditions
Paul Devin
Well run event, friendly atmosphere and great finish line
Great fun and perfect first half
its a great event
The goody bag wasn't as good as previous years
Grab a PB at this one
Fast, flat, scenic. You wont find a flatter course definitely a PB course. Well organised, will be back. The high five from Henry the eighth was a bonus :)
Eileen Leonard
Hope to do it next year!
Christopher Collins
Extremely well run by organisers
Disappointing to see so many runners wearing headphones, think this requires some policing of sorts.
Ed Roose
Good fun
All the staff working in the tents were really helpful and friendly . I was aiming for a sub 2 hours time . I ran for a lot of the race with the 2 hours pacer . He was brilliant , he kept me motivated when I was struggle to keep up and encourage everyone along the way . I thoroughly enjoyed the event . The free downloadable pic was also a nice touch .
