Very tough course with lots of hills for my 1st half marathon.
Friendly people all round helping each other out.
The only things to improve would to mention which apps to use on your watch to help navigate the course or soon signage in areas and the medals to state what the course and distance was (port land loop 1/2 marathon) instead of generic jurassic challenge.
Overall I enjoyed the experience even though the high wind and the rain which made the challenge more fun.
I may book this event again in the future.
