In short: Poor organization and whilst it is for an excellent charity was very poof value for money.
In full: I was entered for Days 4 and 5 only so wasn't getting the whole experience. Entry had been a long and involved process but all was successful or so I thought......On arriving for the start of Day 4 I wasn't listed and had no number issued. No problem, admin faff and hung around for what is laughingly known as a start. Promised at least a marathon distance a day and so was surprised when the leg was short. So poor I didn't even go back for day 5.

In short: A superb challenge. Well organised and a great atmosphere. A life experience!
In full: This was a superb event. The all road route is very challenging but easy to follow as it was well signed all the way. Camp stops are great with showers, loos and good hi-carb food. There's a brew tent too!
I loved this and will be back next year without doubt!
It's for a great cause too.
