In short: Mud and hills made it tough and interesting
In full: This was my first "competitive" race. I had done plenty of training with similar ascents/descents, but this was tougher than expected, mainly I think due to the mud. It probably didn't help that I got carried away and ran too fast at the start as well (20 minutes faster in the 1st half than the 2nd!). Enjoyed it though. It was well organized with clear direction markers on the trail, regular water stations and friendly cheerful marshals (I thought they ALL did a good job, no singling out the lady at 8 miles ;-). I'm definitely interested in doing this again!
