A great atmosphere, good flat simple route. The start is hampered by the ziz zag barriers, maybe the gates could be opened for the event. Other than that i would definitely recommend the event, the marshalls and volunteers were awesome and there was plenty of encouragement and support from spectators and fellow runners
