Great event, which was very well organised from start to finish. The marshal were great - thank you! I ran a Canicross event and totally respect and appreciate the need to manage our dogs to negate tripping up other runners but we all need to play our part. I did this and called out to runners in front to let them know I was passing but so many were oblivious/unable to hear me because they were wearing headphones or had earbuds in. We all need to play our part and some runners had no awareness of what was happening around them because of headphones etc. I am wondering if it might be an idea to ban headphones etc in the interests of health and safety. That aside, an amazing event and my dog had the time of his life!
