Enjoyable half marathon along the seafront towards Tankerton. Almost completely smooth and flat along the concrete path, apart from a surprise small hill climb before the turn back towards Herne Bay. Nice atmosphere and friendly vibe. Only one water station, but well managed by the friendly volunteers. Be aware that the race route is not closed off, so you will be encounter, walkers and dogs along the route. Only downside was the windy weather which meant a strong headwind on the outbound part of the route. I did a wind assisted inbound 5k PB so won't complain too much! Nice medal at the end, plus water and lollipops!

I wasn't quite last and was suffering with a chest infection. If I hadn't been running for Alzheimer's UK I would have stayed at home, but thanks to race support guys and gals and the friendly runners I achieved my goal and thereby raising money for my charity. Thank you all.

Nice Starter 10km. Enjoyable organised run along the sea path. Good for those trying for PB's but equally as good for those who are doing some of their first 10km's. Easy parking, if you're there early, and a no fuss event.
