In short: Work In Progress
In full: Overall i had a great weekend, my mrs went shopping, i had a run, and the sun was out.

Now to the race, on paper the course looked boring but i found it fine, i enjoyed the northern part the most.

Now the problems,
WATER, Half a cup just isnt enough, even if you took 2 cups most of it would of been spilled within a mile
LUCOZADE I started the race with a full bottle to sip on, and was looking forward to another bottle at 14 mile, but what do we get? half a cup of fizzy locozade.

I think most people will have a few complaints about this race but for me the big problem was a lack of communication.
If id known about the lack of fuel and water i would of carried my own but as we were told it would be available i trusted the organisers.

I did enjoy the 2 lap course and will probably come back next year as this is a great PB course, but i will carry my own fuel.

In short: good, challenging race
In full: I enjoyed today, hardly a pb course as i felt like i was constantly running up hill, it was well organised and i didnt see any problem. If you live quite close its well worth doing. I had a 300 mile round trip so next year is a maybe. Overall a good day out
