Always a great race. As Lars notes the pint glass is a much better momento than a XL shirt.
As on a footpath for some of the run don't expect PBS (or clean trainers) but is flat and well organised and definitely a great local race to support rather than Luntos Kingston 16 cash cow.
a can of London Pride was in an Ealing HM goody bag - I thought it was an excellent idea.
I agree re: Kingston 16 or 8 miler - if you choose the shorter distance you're expected to pay 26.50. Probably the most expensive 8 miles in the world.

I just entered this and passed it on to my work running club members; it looks great!
How easy is to get to from Wimbledon ?
There is a train from Putney to Chiswick, but more likely to be easier on a bus anyway. Richmond to Hammersmith (190) goes past there.
I do it every year as it is a local race for me. You get a free pint glass as memento of which I have a few now.
Is there anything in the glass..? I'm new to this race
