In short: Bagagged lorries left Birkenhead Park too early, left me at the start with a rucksack!
In full: For me personally, the biggest gripe was having the start and finish so far apart, the logistics of getting to the start made a lot of people late for the race - added to the fact that the baggage lorries left early - you were knackered for a good time

In short: Hellrunner has got nothing on this
In full: I stupidly thought it was called Devil's Race coz it started in Devil's Bridge - how wrong was I. Didnt bargain on it being half as tough as it was but excellent sense of achievement when it was over.
