Thank you so much for your message – it honestly means the world to us and to all the amazing marshals who give their time, energy, and heart to make these events what they are. We’re incredibly proud of every single participant, and finishing last doesn’t change that one bit — if anything, it shows resilience, determination, and true grit. The fact that you kept going, step by step, all the way to the finish line is exactly the kind of spirit we celebrate most. It’s wonderful to hear that our marshals were there with encouragement right through to the end — they’ll be so happy to know they made a difference and that their cheers were remembered when it mattered most. We hope you walked away from the day with pride, and a real sense of achievement — because you absolutely deserve it. We’d love to see you back at another event, whenever you’re ready for your next challenge! - Castle Race Series
