I'm in :-)

The Cannon Hill bit and Start have have changed but otherwise the route Stuart posted was spot on, thanks.

I absolutely loved this race last year - it was brilliant - but I can't make it this year as have something else on the 11th. Gutted :-(

I plan to do this again this year. Didn't think much of the route last year so hopefully the new course will be an improvement. :)

Looking at the map, it is a big improvement!!

It is a Birmingham Half Marathon, rather than an A34 half marathon!!

Just cycled the route again (the out of town bit), it certainly won't cause anyone any difficulty, 3 small inclines, the most noticable is on Mary Vale Road but it is nothing major. Probably a poor training route actually

Assuming I can get up to pace before the cutoff date for entries in september I'll be there as it's alot more local than the one I'm doing at silverstone in march '10!
