It was a great atmosphere and well organized. My only criticism is that the water station was at the muddiest part of the course, which made that stretch hard to navigate while running/trying to drink water.

Fantastic organisation by RunThrough as usual. Parking was a bit of a pain point but it was great to have everything in the event village so close, including the start line. The course was a bit flooded in a couple of sections, due to the wettest March on record, making it a proper multi-terrain event but still enjoyable overall.

Slightly repetitive doing the same route 4 times and slightly too windy at the end of each lap, some parts more susceptible to flooding. Everyone friendly though and a good crowd.
