All our participants will be gifted with a goody bag. Also included in the ticket price, is photography, drinks, snacks, and a medal.
Our route is intense, with a good hill at the start, sure to get those legs burning! Be assured, their is a pleasant down hill on the second half of the route.
The atmosphere is going to be electric. This should be our biggest event ever!
