My second time running this race.  Great little race to end the year and love getting a pig shaped route on your GPS mapping.  Mixture of closed road and pavement running but overall a nice route.  If running for the first time then advice woukd be don't go big at the begging - there is a fair amount of uphill and most of it in the first third of the race starting after 1.3km mark. The good news is, what goes up....  My only crticism is not the race itself but seeing runners discarding plastic cups from the water station when there was clearly kids holding a large plastic bin a few feet on - seriously runners, have a bit of respect and carry your cup the few feet and to put in a bin!  On that note, not using single use plastic cups would be better,  Overall a great race and will be back next year.
