In short: Hard then easy then hard then easy then dead hard then finish
In full: The friendliness of everyone in the race has to be experienced to be believed. It is because there is no pressure for a PB and the hardships of the race bring everyone together. You finish it and itmeans you have won, it's as simple as that.
