In short: Poorly organised.
In full: Difficult to get information prior to race from website or organisers and 'flaws' on the day itself spoiled the day for the three of us taking part. The map provided in the pack-up indicated just one car park that was a 20 minute walk from the start although there were 2 others much closer. The information pack indicated there would be lockers (at a charge of £3) although there were no facilities there at all. Being told by the 'Organiser' that the lady who was supposed to sort the lockers had been off sick for the previous month added insult to injury. Having to leave our gear in a plastic bag under a table was not reassuring. On the plus side a good warm-up was provided by 'Military Fitness' and the flat scenic course did provide a PB. Nevertheless we will not partake in this event again and do not recommend it.
