Really enjoyed the Gauntlet experience. The only part i was unhappy and frustrated about was at the end of the swim navigating the way to the finish area was not clear when in the water. On my approach I found it was not very clear behind the water reeds and I found myself swimming off course and eventually being told by the kayak to turn back . There should be guidance floats towards the finish. Just an observation ... I didn't come across any motorbike support on the course. Other than that the road and trail markings were very good and a big thanks to all the people helping and guiding along the course. The team were all very attentive and there was never any confusion along the route. The hospitality and atmosphere at the finish are and the start was excellent.
Thank you so much for your feedback, and we're really glad to hear you enjoyed the Gauntlet experience overall! We truly appreciate you bringing up the issue at the end of the swim. We're sorry to hear that the finish area was unclear—navigating through reeds can definitely be disorienting, especially when you're giving your all near the end. Your experience is valuable to us, and we'll review the signage and marshal positioning for that section to make sure it's more clearly marked for future participants. Thanks again for taking the time to share your thoughts—it helps us improve and deliver the best possible event experience. Hope to see you again next time! - Castle Race Series
