In short: Tough but enjoyable
In full: Really enjoyed this event. Different to the usual 10k so something of a new challange. No pount aiming for a pb here but certainly other targets such as no stoping and pushing through the obstacles. Bit frustrating in that after all the hard work i ended up having to que for about 10 mins for the last but one obstacle. organisers should look at increasing the number of waves or making sure that the end obstacles are ones that are not one person at a time things.

Other than that a good day and will do it again. very sore today mind!

In short: A long but enjoyable day, ache all over the next day!
In full: A great race, obstacles were harder than expected when cobined, my muscles were like jelly afterwards! Price was justifiable due to the tech t-shirt, very good goody bag and the cost of putting the obstacles together.

Only critisism was the queue for the obstacles, having a 5 minute wait for each of the last 2 was painful.

Very enjoyable day, looking forward to next year.
