Running East - West in Bath is the only way to minimise the hills.  I train North - South and the run up Lansdown and down to Weston and back is tough.  For all the charm the centre of the city has a lot of the race is run in the post-apocalyptic Lower Bristol Road - come on BANES sort your city out.  This year was enjoyable and the best marshalling and spectator support I've seen for a few years. 

Well done.. sounds a great race!
