On the website and in the race pack sent it said prizes were given to the first 3 in each age cat but when I found out I’d come 3rd in my age cat I wasn’t given anything so I had to enquire about this and after about 3 attempts of finally getting through to someone they said they’d give me free 3 months gym membership which is no use as I do not live near Bracknell and I’m already a member of a gym . So they then offered me a voucher for coral reef. So I don’t think you should be advertising prizes if u don’t follow this through as it’s wrong information and disappointing to the athlete. Furthermore there was no link to the official Race Times or Pictures post race . Normally organisers send a follow Up email with this in. Banana and water was very basic post race and wooden medal?! No thanks .

It was a great day. Quite a hilly route though, just saying that for anyone who wants to try it in the future.
