Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,

A.C No PB...like the course tho. The official event timing was rubbish. My time on my stopwatch which I forgot to turn off until for around ten seconds after the end was 1.36.31. So real time was probably closer to 1.35. Ho Hum.

Boingy Great weather and course, and very well organised. Some testing hills in the first half, but would you believe it, a new PB ! Don't know where that came from, but I'm really chuffed with it. Kept to my target of 8min/mile for the first half, thought that would kill me because of the hills, but felt great so upped in the last 6 to come home over 3 min quicker than my previous best. Very happy ! (used my watch time, official time 1:40:23) ** Splits - 8.25 7.55 7.43 7.54 7.55 8.01 7.25 7.30 7.43 7.22 7.04 7.12 7.04 **

Crumpet My first Half Marathon and I really enjoyed it. A few tough hills but nice scenery made up for it. Very well organised. Delighted with my time considering and will attempt to beat it at the MK Half in a few weeks time.

Laura27 My first half marathon and what a race! Fantastic weather, fantastic course (even with the killer hills!) Came in at a time I thought I could only dream of for my first 1/2. What a high!! XX

linsblake Started off brilliantly and was on course for my first sub two hour when my knee went at mile 7. Had it bandaged up at St Johns station at 8.5 miles and then hobbled/ran the rest of the way. Spent nearly 10 mins being patched up so in reality not too shoddy a time considering! Lovely course - not as challenging hill wise as I had been lead to believe, well organised and lovely marshalls.

Nightjar Tough course and I gave it what I could. Pleased with the time given that I picked up a cold yesterday. Apols to the peeps that bet on me - self included - but a PB was just beyond me. Mind you, if I'd known how close it was...

PSC want to break the 2 hour barrier - AND DID SO..... A pb by about 10 minutes.... thanks to everyone who betted on me - it kept me going! What a tough old course - haven't worked out whether there was a negative split in my time, but just had enough to raise the pace to a 7 min mile (final mile) for the finish. Couldn't run to catch a bus now tho - left lower leg siezed completely. Frankly I don't care - target set and achieved! Thanks Watford..... Nice to meet a few folk - Banaman, Boingy, Hod, Mick n Phil - defo advantages about wearing a Fetch T Shirt! :-) Well organised and cracking day - thanks to the Watford Team!!

starfleet1985 Lovely course but extremly hilly. Well policed and marshalled. Nice weather but a tad cold. Timing was awful about two minutes different from my watch. What a PB!!!
