An incredible event organised by Darren and his team. Everything ran really smoothly from start to finish. You can tell a lot of detail goes into making it what it is. Darren was really present throughout, on every start line making sure runners had what they needed pre race and during. The rest of the team were also great and helped keep everything running behind the scenes. Massive thanks to all the marshals who were out on the course all night, their support was much appreciated. I loved the course, and the small touches at the end were a really nice finish. From the lap tokens, box engraving, medal and even the coffee beans for runners. Huge credit to Darren and everyone involved for putting on such a well organised event.
