Water stations a bit rare and serving water from plastic cups filled to the top, so it's best to bring your own with you. Also, finisher t-shirts strangely only available pre-race. But otherwise a good race with friendly volunteers and a beautiful course.

Yes. The last 3 miles are tough. All uphill so reserve some energy for that!

A fantastic event, great organisation and support from the local community on route. The inclusion of time pacers was a brilliant addition to the event. Particular shout out to the '2 hour pace maker' who did an amazing job coming in exactly at 2 hours! If you are looking for an event where you can trust the pacers, enjoy amazing views, this is the event for you. I hope to be back next year.
