In short: Good event overall with a few crucial blindspots...
In full: Enjoyed this event and the course is fair and almost traffic free. Stewards were friendly and helpful. My only real gripe would be the almost total absence of mileage or Km markers in the 50k race (There was also a marathon). Having three markers in a 31 mile race is JUST NOT ENOUGH. Feedback on pacing is crucial for gauging your performance. This is a bewildering flaw in anotherwise fine race.

In short: A big let-down for the serious runner.....not really a running race, more of a fund raising day out.
