Enjoyable
Not such a big hill at the end please
Paul Taylor
OVerall a well organised event with great marshalls and fantastic support
The only downside was a flippant comment from a male marshall at the bottom of the zig zag path coming up to the finish, so approx 14 - 14.5 miles in. Who quite proudly announced "you have had it easy this year, its normally much worse" now I dont think anybody finds this event "easy" and when you are tired, wet, muddy and facing the finish mountain, its not what you want to hear.

Great organisation, great race
Steve Brown
Great location, course sn
The use of plastic cups and associated debris needs a thorough review. I took my own water to avoid using cups.
At all stations there were cups thrown away by competitors and being blown in the wind. Marshals should be empowered to DQ anyone found littering even at stations.
paul prior
Best race of the year.
Robert SOMMERVILLE
Very friendly and well organised
Dave Cassin
Great race, great atmosphere, lovely route and very well organised with friendly and helpful marshals.
Only one negative which was the bottleneck caused by having to go through 2 kissing gates early in the race. It didn't spoil the event but would have been better without this.
All race marshalls, officials, and volunteers were great, very supportive, and encouraging throughout the course. Well done team. Fantastic event.
