  • Comments: Great race to have as my first. Competitors and marshals were falling over themselves to help out - thanks to Steve for offering advice and gels, "Camper Van Man" for providing so much info and Clare for being a competitor I vaguely knew! :) As this was my first race, I went with two things in mind - 1) it's an information gathering exercise, so just see what happens and 2) don't race with anything that you haven't trained with. All of which seemed to work well and I really enjoyed it. Still can't get over how friendly and helpful people were! I'd end up having 5 min chats with people I didn't even know and a 10 minute walk to the car for kit would take over half an hour!! :)
