In short: Hot, Hilly but great fun
In full: Really well organised, really good course with some great scenary, a proper multi-terrain race.
Even without the heat this would be challeging. Hills just kept on coming, especially that one just as you cross the road. you see it and just think, no they can't want us to do that, but up you go, not a long hill just steep.

In short: Hot and hilly but good fun
