In short: Everything done right
In full: Big pat on the back to Ivanhoe runners, all the marshals and the army cadets for brilliant organisation. Very hard hills. Made me wonder what you need to get it classified as hilly. Plenty of water stations helped a lot. Best goody bag ever - at last something runners actually want and need - FOOD.
