My first ultra marathon and i loved this race. The course was extremely well marked with beautiful views throughout. Staff were supportive and friendly, shout out to the 4X4 crew for helping with the road crossings.

A great location for this run and so very well organised, well signed posted etc and the people at the checkpoints were amazing. Shout out to those at the 3rd checkpoint, they were so sweet and helpful and just knew at 38km that we needed a smile and help! Only down side for me, was I didn’t get any pizza as it was quite a wait so decided to shoot off 😎
