Cracking course with some great views at the top. Once you’ve caught your breath after getting up the hill…😂 loved the beer and cakes afterwards. Always a good time with IGUN

A testing race but the out and backs were a bit narrow in places . Some of the marshals could have been a little bit more vocal when directing but then some were really encouraging.

Fantastic race, well organised. Every one was so friendly and helpful, it has a very supportive atmosphere. I’ll definitely do another IGUN event, the cider, chocolate and medal help make that decision even easier! 😂
