First time I've done this event and wasn't disappointed! Registration simple and straightforward, baggage dropped off then we were ready to run. The start was a bit congested due to narrow paths so couldnt really get into your stride till 1.5miles in along the coast. It is a 2 lap course with out and back sections so if you dont want the leaders lapping you or see them flying past the opposite way then maybe it isn't for you. Great PB potential with course almost pancake flat. Was told in race email that there were 6 water stations but on the day there was only 4 meaning an almost 4 mile gap between stations during the race. Local support was minimal with most people enjoying a walk along the coast themselves but Marshall support was a lot better. I had 3 hi-5's from Marshall at entrance to fairhaven lake every time I passed her.
