In short: A few problems
In full: The toilet issue from last year was addressed,but chip to chip timing what is the point of gun to chip especially when you have walkers in front of you and won#t let you pass,there should be starting pens better route than last year, marshalling was pretty poor apart from 1 chap at 7k who was very good.More water as it seems those finishing over 50 mins got no water just Redbull!!
advance notice of water station not a problem for me but would like to know that there will be people stopping and walking.

I like this race and will be back next year

In short: A great PB course
In full: Lots of issues addressed lack of toilets seemed to upset people .I am sure this will be sorted out for next year a very scenic course and a faster course than Swansea in my opinion.A great day out for the whole family and great to see the race started on time and plenty of water.

In short: A great race with stunning views
In full: What can I say a very challenging course and 20ish miles instead of 17 very easy to get off track .very friendly and helpful Marshalls a great banana station, the flies yuck and very narrow ledge that was slippery and mountains not hills and cakes and sandwiches for those that wanted them.I can see this is most peoples caledar for next year.
