The half marathon had a great atmosphere, within all those participating in it. All the race marshall volunteers were fantastic and did a great job during the event.
However over a third of the course is on a mixture of dirt and gravel, which as a wheelchair user is very tough going and slowed me down considerably due to losing traction with my wheels a lot of the time whilst on that part of the course during the four laps done.
So I would not recommend this event for disabled wheelchair participants.
