A wonderful event suitable for all abilities. The field quickly mixes with no obvious front and back of field. All competitors encourage others regardless of their position. Feed stations are well stocked and support staff are friendly and fully engaged. The whole event has a friendly atmosphere.

I thought the route was very repetitive and at certain points difficult crossing the narrow bridge due to incoming walkers. Could a complete loop be made so you aren't going back over the same route a couple of times per lap? Organisers were great though and top atmosphere
