Beautiful course. A very well organised event. Great email communication from the moment I registered. The starting area was well staffed with clear signage and zoned areas for bag drop, loos, starting pens etc. Great course running through beautiful parts of the university while you still have energy. Then a big loop down to Grantchester Village and back. The efficiency of the finish line process was also excellent. Chip times text to me within minutes and a congratulations email later that day.

Could do better...... Great, mostly flat course and vocal local support spoilt by appalling organisation of the Park & Ride and roads that narrowed too much making overtaking very difficult. The Park & Ride at Trumpington Road was a shambles as I arrived as suggested at 7:30 to then wait for half an hour for another bus to arrive. By this time the queue behind me was several hundred people long and I overheard a Park & Ride employee tell a marathon helper that there was no chance that all of the people would arrive on time with only three buses serving the location and Cambridge being a effective one way system due to road closures!!
