In short: Most beautiful and rewarding race I've done - but tough course and not for first timers
In full: Wonderful atmosphere, fantastic trails and a really unique competitive aspect that got the blood pounding! I utterly loved it. The race itself was truly stunning with incredible scenery. The after party was awesome (best brownies ever) and I shall be proudly wearing my hoody everywhere! Please please do this again, Red Bull!
PS whilst amazing, this was a tough course. Some people really seemed to struggle through a lack of preparation - eg not wearing trail shoes. I wouldn't recommend it of you haven't done a trail race or two before, simply because you probably won't enjoy it quite as much!

In short: Poorly signposted throughout and with no distance markers or refreshments at end
In full: Overall poorly organised. It wasn't clear at the start which was the 10k and which was the 15km course. There was no loudspeaker so when it was announced no one could hear it. The signposting was poor - a group of us got lost and others ended up missing the course entirely. No chip timing and no refreshments at the end. I was very disappointed. The Brutal and G3 run series are much better organised and I wouldn't run this again.

In short: Awesome challenge, could do with a few nicer touches in the organisation
In full: Overall a great race - super challenging as promised! A really tough course but very satisfying. It would have been nice, given the entry fee, to get something at the end - some cakes or something after working so hard!
