What an amazing event Sundowner was. From start to finish, the staff were brilliant—friendly, organised and genuinely supportive throughout. The venue was fantastic too: a great setting, well laid out and perfect for racing. You could really feel the effort that had gone into making it a proper experience for everyone taking part. I had a brilliant day and will definitely be back next year. Highly recommend it.

Great atmosphere, well organised. Liked the fact that waves were segregated so that women could swim with women only. Made it less daunting. Also liked that you could stand up In the water before you started rather than treading water forever. Bike course nice and flat and smooth, distinct lack of potholes 😁 didn’t like that gel wrappers were discarded on the course and run course ☹️ The run course seemed to go on forever, twisty turny at points but not a big gripe. Could be muddy if it’s rained a lot so bear in mind show selection. All in all I loved the course.

Wow. Well done this was a superb event. Venue,location, course were ideal. The support from volunteers, Spectators and of course the organisers was first class. Unlike some of the razzmatazz franchise events sundowner offers sensible pricing and fantastic value for money. You sense the guys at U Prevail are genuinely passionate with endurance sport and I hope you are around for years to come. Best wishes and thank you for the experience

Volunteers and the Staff were superb as always, the swim is what it is, 4 laps is a bit boring, but fine, the bike course is good, flat and fast, but the run is terrible... The rutted field where people were running in cow tracks and turning ankles was awful, would genuinely make me question entering the race next year, everything else was spot on, it's a great location.

First time I’ve entered this event and most of it was fantastic! The swim was fine, the bike route was great (a bit windy on the first 10 miles but nothing we can do about that!) the run was awful! That route is just demoralising! It’s all on rutted grass or gravel paths, ankles being rolled all over the place! And it’s just up and down passing everyone every 2 seconds! I don’t mind laps but that just felt like you were trying to find a spare field to run around to make miles up! The water station ran out of water! If the run route changed I’d do it again but not as it is now.

I felt the race was well organised overall just a couple of things that could be improved to make it even better are 1. Bag drop to be situated nearer transition or allow for bags to be placed around the sides of the transition area as having to walk bag to a bag drop after a 70.3 and then have to walk back to transition was hard and there was no one there checking who was taking the bags so they would be just as safe in the transition area. 2. Better manned water station on the run, the water station was only manned by two people who were great but as this aid station was.passed three times by runners it really needed at least 3 as a minimum allowing for one at each direction runners were coming from. It also ran out of water and it looked like they had to walk back to fill the drums maybe they could ring someone to bring more water or just have more stock. 3. For those doing the 70.3 it would have been nice for one of the aid stations to also have offered an electrolyte drink.
