I've taken part in quite a few I.G.U.N events but this is the 1st time I've done this particular race.

There was a choice of distances from 5k to Ultra. I opted for the full marathon. The registration was smooth although more congested than usual

What you get with Spring Canal Canter is a flat & fast out and back course along good quality canal tow paths with plenty of PB potential. This race is as friendly as they come, beautiful finisher's medal, goody bag and as much cake as you can eat!

The marshalls were absolute 1st class. Their support and encouragment really helped keep runners going and I can't thank them enough.

Plenty of water stations along the route that were stocked water, cola plus a variety of  cake, biscuits, etc to keep runners nourished.

I'd highly recommend I.G.U.N events. No thrills, no bull. Just good honest races. Can't wait until the next one!
