In short: Overall OK
In full: Car parking a nighmare despite arriving before 9am end up on grass verge 10 mins from hq. Toilets hopelessly inadequate for numbers. School hall was too small for numbers attending. Start area farcical. However, reasonably enjoyed the race due to fellow competitors and the scenery, not forgetting the undulating course

In short: You will not smell nice after this one!
In full: Was in last wave and disappointed by the amount of queuing at obstacles from the water onwards. Good camaraderie amongst competitors, needed the leg up over the final wall! km markers suggested it was 12km long.

In short: Well organised
In full: Lots of deja vu with underpasses, yellow bollards and a recurring great dane! Many marshalls but very little other support around the course. Entry expensive but happy that it goes to charity.

In short: Really poor organisation
In full: Nice run through the woods on tracks/footpaths. Let down by poor communication of delayed start, lack of km markers and only 2 marshalls out on the course.
