In short: Not as flat as expected. Doing a loop a mile or so from end via railway station also unexpected, when bridge in sight. A mysterious discrepancy in finishing times despite use of timing chips. Some aerial indicator of start line might be helpful.

In short: This race is always on my "must-try-to-do" list. For Devon it does have pb potential and the views beside the riverTorridge are worth the trip alone.
