In short: Epic and Emotional
In full: Fantastic event for the ultra marathon first-timer, the organisation from start to finish was amongst the best I've ever experienced. I always felt safe and knew that if I had any problems I could get help immediately. A few people have criticised the route but to reiterate what's already been said, the route was well-advertised on the website and emailed to us, so we should all have seen the mix of terrain and chosen our shoes accordingly, there was even kit advice on the website. The catering was great as far as I'm concerned. At Vindolanda I wasn't keen on the burgers either but the huge serving of vegetable curry was great. A massive thank you to all involved, not least my fellow runners/walkers, it was great to share the experience with you.

In short: A massive Well Done to the organisers!
In full: Who needs Muller?! New route was an improvement, still a bit crowded as we got through the field onto the road (but much better than last year), water station well-manned, plenty of marshalls, maybe some tents needed signs (e.g. bag drop off) and a shame about the huge queue for registration (but race still started on time). In summary, a staple race for the year with great support from the town, great value for money and an excellent day out for the family.
