Warm up was really fun! The course was excellent, not too many sharp curves. The atmosphere at night was electric!

Everything seemed very well organised. Loved the snacks and medal. We were approached by someone with the race minutes before the start telling us we couldn't run with our dog, despite that not being anywhere on the site, and the site actually noting there could be dogs on the course. We ran with the dog anyway, but, some specific call outs on the site about race rules or discussions with the race workers on what is or isn't allowed would be good.

The organisation of this event felt poor compared with other runs. I was directed the wrong way to the starting line by a steward, and then lots of us were ushered in the wrong direction so missed the warm up. Plus I preferred other races where we were set out in finishing time blocks, starting all at once meant my pacing was all off (which is kinda my fault, but still preferred the other races I've done)
