Overall the event was well organised. The exception was the pre-paid parking. The information provided by the organisers was vague. It did not display my registration plate. On arrival none of the organisers seemed to know the process. The response was - it should be ok. To avoid having to fight with the parking companies I was forced to pay again for parking on the day. Suggest if you can’t make it clear to participants, don’t offer pre event parking!!

Great Xmas medal (Xmas 10k in Dec 24 was postponed to Jan 25) which was a different design from last year's. Marshals/organisation were all excellent. Course is beautiful. Some frozen mud in places which required a little care. Overall, loved it.
