Really well organised event with lovely marshals. The only complaint was the funnel of runners through the gate at the start of the run, a small detail but could have been a better way to start!

Really good event but the amount of runners starting at the same time and getting through the first gate was a bit disappointing (especially for those going for a PB!)
