Great, challenging run. Lots of "undulations"😆
It was a hot day and the organisers added a water station at 7k but the problem for me is that the first was at 5k ish. Several runners commented that another water station was needed much earlier for hydration. This was the first run I'd done in the Uk. Having done most of my running in hotter climates they usually have the first water station at 3k.
It's a beautiful route with varied terrain and scenery (no huge hills, which I like). The race was well organised with plenty of staff/marshals on hand. I liked how they handled the heatwave by moving it earlier and I was grateful for the gel sachets at the water stations. The atmosphere was fantastic and everyone was very positive and supportive. I would do this one again, just not in such crazy heat! Thanks everyone for organising.

This is and was a fantastic race. It was well-organized and staffed by enthusiastic, helpful, and cheery volunteers. Who marshalled the course and water points with a smile, words of encouragement, and always good banter.
BUT, beware. This is not an easy course. It can be testing in parts and soul-destroying in the wrong weather conditions. You should also be aware that if you are a slower runner (me, I was close to 3 hours for this course), then the tiny starter village will be being dismantled, the finish line is still there, as well as the encouraging finishing commentary, and there is also still loads of people visiting the site to shout encouragement and finished runners with support, but if you weren't aware you could feel like they are tapping a foot waiting for you to finish. Having said that, I understand their time restraints as the visitors centre is still open to the public, and there are a lot of car park spaces being taken up by the race, so don't bite the hand that feeds. The main question is whether I would do this again...YES
