Excellent race, kudos BHAA and Sterling.
ReplyDeleteLoads of parking and also close to registration, start, and finish. Goodie bag with protein bar, water, crisps, and a woolly hat! Course well marked out and marshalled. Plenty water and bananas at finish line. Great challenging course, chip timed, and all for _just_ €5!!!!
Only minor gripe is folk up near the front of start line who are running over 4 min/km. There was a few close calls, but you get that with every race!
