Just make sure the course is long enough! Other than that the course is good, organisation good. Disappointed there wasn’t a spread of snacks at the finish as there were in previous years but understand the reasoning behind this.

Short course despite being assured on the start line that it had been re-measured and it was the right length. Inexcusable.
