Great, well organised event. Being my first ever event I was very impressed. I was disappointed that the medal was made from wood and nothing like those on the adverts for the event.

This was a great event and I was on track for a very good race till I did something to my hamstring. Nice mix of flat and a gentle climb up a hill. Marshals were amazing and checked on me as I did my last 3 laps with a limp. Will do it again next year.
