Incredible route for a trail run. Just wasn't expecting as much tough terrain and hills.

Incredible run beautiful sights. Only criticism is putting that steep, strenuous, long hill at the last half mile of the run. Most people were walking it which is not surprising after running for 12.5 miles.

Well organised with the runner numbers pack arriving in advance by post. Great info for the free athlete parking and nice walk as described to the Start/Finish. Beautiful sunny day, with lovely scenery for the race. The very slight start delay didn’t detract from the event at all. For a runner with few hills locally, the elevation changes on the course were noticeable😂🥵
