Course was challenging for the first half of the race which was good but I felt the race experience was disappointing. The race pack informed that one of the car parks was free when in actual fact a charge applied. The race village was non-existent which was poor on such a cold morning. There was no water stop after 7 miles as the scheduled 3rd stop had run out after the 10k runners passed through. The signage from 11 miles was awful and the marshalls from 11 miles were not at all helpful, preferring to look at phones or look the other way. After the first half of the race when you went back through town people were walking across the route causing runners to weave and I saw the half marathon leaders held up by 10k runners as they exited the park. I certainly would not run Luton again.

Everything was fine, very nice tour for Half Marathon via Luton Hoo - as always. No finishers t-shirt this year, but for me it's not important.
