Hi Peeps
I ran the Hampton Court half marathon on Sunday, so I thought I would share my experiences, if you are after a great winter race for next year.
I have written a full review on my running blog, the link is here. Hope you find it helpful!
Did you do this race? What did you think about it?

I ran it too for my first half of the year. Had heard that traffic and parking was a real issue in previous years but didn't find any problems with it this year although that's probably because I got there a bit early. I thoroughly enjoyed it, weather was unseasonably warm, it was nice and flat and the goody bag was excellent. I don't run the same half twice but would recommend it to others. If you like that neck of the woods then would recommend the Thames Meander and the Grand Union Canal half's.
Cheers,
Loz
This year, with a new start venue (same as the Harry Hawkes 10) it went buttery smooth. Slightly staggered start with different pace groups, pacers, lots of loos, and bag ready for me as soon as approached the tent. (Oh and I got a PB!) Medal was almost twice the size of last year's too, plus a T-shirt.
A huge improvement - well done organisers.
