Report
The course is one loop of the area surrounding the Open University campus and is fast and flat (with a few hills no greater than our very own Green Park), guaranteeing runners a good half marathon time to back up their training. The course starts on the roads in Milton Keynes before moving onto the wide red-route bicycle paths that dissect the city taking the course surprisingly through areas of beauty and interest.
Although the weather conditions were less than ideal with howling winds, rain and hail storms, the event was very enjoyable with good organisation and plenty of toilet facilities. I would recommend this as another pre-London race especially if your looking for that elusive pb!!
