41 mins! 269 people so quite busy. Lovely encouraging marshalls. Will definitely make it a regular thing.

Well done! How was it running with lots of people? I'm thinking about giving it a go next week, any advice or tips for a newbie?

Great fun. There's a very supportive atmosphere, lots of volunteers to cheer you on and you're reminded its a run not a race so no pressure. If you register you get an email with your time and you can log on to chart your progress over the weeks. Good luck!
