← Race to the Tower

I ran the non-stop double marathon, my longest run (so far!). I thought the organisation was really good, from regular emails, a good website, through to the day itself. The volunteers were keen to help, ask after my well being & cheered me on. Food choice mostly hit the mark other than at halfway where it fell way short of the mark. This was the only stop where I planned on taking a bit more time to refuel, change socks and refresh. I didn’t hang around at the end to explore food options but understand you had to pay (the alcohol free beer was free and plentiful). Highlights for me included the scenery (what views!), the company of fellow runners and achieving another goal (my furthest run). It is expensive but you are getting a supported double marathon. And yes there are extras you may need or want to pay for but research this in advance and make your choice. What would I do differently? I’d take my own Wiggle hydration tablets rather than use the powder available. I wholeheartedly recommend this race. I loved it and will probably book Return to the Stones next year.
