In short: badly organised, and they refuse to reply to any contact
In full: Fat feet events wouldnt reply to any contact before race, and now also wont respond at all.

Poor parking, many directed to a car park with no toilets near (locked) and that meant a long cold walk back after end of race.

Army cadets were good at water stations, but a tiny drop of water in cups no good, plus kids were having to deal with very cold people and didnt really seem to know what to do with cold casualties.

No one around at the finish, no one to give out goodie bags. and goodie bag rubbish, just a promotional vest for the company and certificate and no medal and vest way too small. poor mementoes for £35.

No care for cold wet people that i could see.

Shuttle buses useless, not enough, long wait.

This isnt some charity race organised by volunteers at a club, but a proffesional events company.

Chip also failed untill i was directed back over mat twice

Have waited over a week to rate, as wanted to give them a chance to respond to my complaints, but ignored
