This is the second time I have taken part in this event and the first time under the stewardship of Adrenaline Events. The day was very well planned and I found the coach transfers to work well. I’m looking forward to next year!

Very well organised event by Adrenaline Sporting Events taking over for the first time. Communication prior to the event from Alan was very clear giving clear instructions about the parking, the location and what to expect on the day. The park and ride setup to the Race Village worked very well.The course has huge PB potential and takes in the stunning Welsh scenery. As with all the medals you receive at an Adrenaline Sporting Event, The medal you receive at the end of this race is First Class! Well Done!

Enjoyed this race. I felt that the carparking was spot on with coaches taking you to start area. Just few more toilets required which you already had taken onboard that more will be there next yr. Bag drop was swift too.

The only downfall of the event was the lack of toilets, which forced the race to start late. everything else was so fantastically organised and runners were kept safe on an open road, drivers were patient, the support was fantastic and overall just brilliant

Nowhere near enough toilets at either the car park or the event village. Car park was fine for us but we got there early. I believe it was chaos later on meaning a delayed start. Nobody could hear the announcements at the start so the minutes silence was a mess. Air horn didn't sound for the start until about 5 seconds after everyone was running. No bins on the course (For gels, cups, bottles) at all. Water stations were a mess. Only plastic cups which are mostly pointless. Only the 2nd station held out cups for people. Highly doubt the stations would have kept up with demand once large amounts of people started to come through at once. More stations needed, bottles needed, advance notice of where the water stations will be needed.Everyone I dealt with however was lovely and very helpful. This has the makings of a real 'Must Do' event but missed the mark this time. Hopefully next year the feedback will be taken on board and improvements made.
