Well organised, great views, headphones forbidden. A well oragnised run with friendly marshals on all the crossing points to help runners. Plenty of nice views including lake and parks, mostly running on nicely maintained paths and tracks. The only negative was the 'no headphones' rule was a little excessive, with people being threaten with disqualification if they are caught listening to music on a run for more than an hour. I understand the health and safety concerns with crossing roads, but most peoples situation awareness is pretty good if they are confident enough to listen to something to help pass the time while running. Apart from that the music and food at the start/finish line was great and the tech tshirt is nice and bright for the winter months.
