This was a warm-up race for me (literally!!) and I was impressed by the stunning course. The swim was great, the bike loop was lovely and the run completely off-road.
The event organisers, first aiders and marshalls were also super friendly. My only thought would be to have more water on the run course - the intial provision of a cup or so every half hour didn't really seem adequate given the high temperatures.
Would definitely recommend this one and will be back for more next year!
