This race was on the whole really well organised. Mark and his team put together a great event. My only comments would be that I would have liked to have received initial email comms a little earlier than I did to reassure me that everything was going to plan (which is clearly was and did).
Course marking was pretty good. There were a couple of confusing spots but I suspect that was mostly down to some 'erbert nicking arrows.
Mark and his team were friendly, helpful and professional and I would recommend this race to anyone wanting to do their first 50 miler (as it was mine)
Massive thanks to Big Dave and his partner at aid station 3 for helping me out of a massive low spot and fixing me so that ultimately I was able to finish.

I really enjoyed this race, despite the physical pain I am in at this moment while I write this. Very friendly and helpful staff at every part of the race from start to finish, including all aid stations in between.
What a day... conditions of the trail were unfortunately as bad as they get due to heavy rainfall in the week leading up. At least half the trail was a total mudpit or a lake, making this year's race extra challenging.
It was my 1st ultra so I don't have a lot to compare it to... but I can say that the support from the staff was fantastic, always smiling and encouraging us every step of the way.
Highly recommend this event, you'd be unlucky to encounter conditions this bad again... but like I said, it just added to the challenge and made it all that more satisfying when we crossed the line in Totton.
