This is a great event and the 2nd time I've done it. The atmosphere around the course is spot on with loads of locals out supporting the runners. Most of the kids wanted high fives which is a nice added boost when you're legs are tired. The medal is amazing and goody bag is just about right. Its not packed with unwanted items. Car parking in the local car parks was free, which is a nice touch. The only downside was the feed stations. It was way too chaotic at some of them. The 2nd feed station comprised of two tables which isn't enough that early in the race. I missed the water and so did others. There needs to be more tables, spread out over 50 metres or so. There was a decent spread of tables at some feed stations to be fair. A big positive for the stations is the small water bottles. It saves wasting so much water. Overall a great event and I would sign up again.
