JennyJL Nice support and well spaced refreshments. baggage shocking and useless having a web tracker if it doesn't work. My hubby said the only time he got for me was the 10km mark and a few hours later (30km mark), a mutual friend spotted me and texted him to say I was okay. Was just pleased to get to the start and then get to the end! Wouldn't bother doing it again though, 'flat' or not. Baggage and toilet organisation should be the part of the basics they get right and they didn't, especially if this was the 40th one :0 Unaffiliated 4:58:57 5:22:18 5:22:18 49.63

Little Linz I was one of the lucky ones that got a PB so fortunately that outshone the fact I paid for a parking space I couldn't use (and had to walk over a mile to the start and missed the gun and my pace group) and the baggage fiasco. Flat course with definite PB potential with great crowd support, but the organisers have to step it up for next year. Unaffiliated 3:39:13 3:39:13 3:39:13 64.58

manc_red85 Couldn't pick up the pace from the start due to crowding and found I was trying to chase my target time although I felt I was making good progress until the 23/24 mile mark when the cramp set in. All lessons for my next one. Happy with my first marathon...I'm hooked Unaffiliated 3:49:52 3:49:52 3:49:52 53.49

Melksham runner Lovely race, amazing crowds (especially the choirs and bands) good course (though not as flat as advertised). Good run by me - started slow, built through the middle and was able to push on to the end. 3:39 got me the time I needed for Comrades. I have to say though the baggage Avon Valley Runners, Redway Runners 3:35:52 3:39:33 3:39:33 61.95

VickyW Memorable first marathon. Support around the course was awesome. Baggage collection was a joke afterwards. Some mile markers missing or had blown round the wrong way, or wasn't the correct distance between them. Organisers have held their hands up and are looking into things. Finish line pictures are a joke with medical people standing in the way!!! Would do again but maybe in a couple of years when the problems have been addressed.
