In short: Great atmosphere and a great cause but just way TOO crowded In full: Like others have said, I wouldn't want to swop places with the organiser but this feedback is intended to help. The course just had too many people of varying ability trying to get into too small a space.
I felt so sorry for the wheel chair pushers who were swomped within the 1st km and to be honest having chairs being pushed at the front of the feild was pretty short sighted and a disaster.
The lanes on the out and back section were just not long enough and using cones rather than proper barriers just provided a series of trip hazards in a very crowded field. Perhaps an out and back on another route would work better and give every one a little more space to manouver.
A great cause and perhaps a vicitm of it's own success to some degree. I hope they can iron out these challenges.
