Bosun Tony One of the marathon majors. Great experience doing a marathon of this size. Very well organised. The roads are really wide and plenty of room after only a few K's. Course was really flat & i'm sure if I had pushed on a bit would have had a really good time, nearer 3 : 30 than 3 : 36. Would do this one again. You even get as much free beer as you want at the end !!! Unaffiliated 3:19:52 3:33:56 3:30:00 3:36:27 60.32

controversial trying to go un 3h30 ... let see what happens!

And I did it ... but playing very conservative. I was really fearing the end of the race, so i put myself 3 minutes in front of 3:30:00 pace over the first half and then managed the advantage till the end. Still the last 10 K were very painfull. Damn heat!
Only on problem with the organisation ... drinking in cups is almost impossible when you are running! Clapham Chasers 2:33:54 3:27:47 3:30:00 3:27:47 58.51

wizlyn Very very hot day: 27 degrees, and felt like it on the course - but route was as fast and flat as advertised. 

Really pleased with time - nearly 14 mins off PB and 65th woman overall - despite a tough patch 30k to 40k when I got the dreaded cold skin dehydration thing (my cup-drinking technique requires work - had to walk through the last couple of water stations...) - and a couple of minutes lost c. 36k to an emergency pitstop(!)
