Well organised event with plenty of feed
stations. I jogged round this one and really enjoyed it.
The last 6.2 miles were much tougher than I expected with some
difficult terrain and climbs. Plenty of food and drink
available at the end and a party atmosphere.
My only grumble is that the half and full marathoners got identical T shirts. The medals were generic things that didn't even mention what the race was. Given how expensive this race is I think the organiser should put his hand in his pocket and provide marathon runners and half marathon runners with T shirts specific to their race. A good training run for the UT55 ultramarathon. |
