Quiet race but nice for my first one since 2019. Some people a bit rowdy at briefing so I struggled to hear. Great goody bag (without a bag) and very kindly gave my chief cheerleaders (kids) sweeties too! Thanks

Basic course flat surface with little challenge no crowds no music not a lot but a nice little medal to go with the collection not worth the price

It's not entirely flat 😂 there are so many locks to go up - some are up and over and some are just up so coming back they are just down. There are no distance markers so marshalls are at the turning points. I'm glad I had someone to run with because there were some proper dodgy characters along the canal at points 😂The link in the text message sent out was broke so wasn't sure where to go - I couldn't see that the start was signposted but we found it easily enough and it was fine. Drinks are provided on the course in jugs that you pour into your own bottle (or in my case my hands 🤭)BIG shout out to the team who are amazing though ❤️If I was to do anymore events I would definitely consider it's grim up north. Because it's really not that bad 😉
