  • Comments: Awesome course, awesome race and nice volunteers. However, the management royally stuffed-up the starts- some women started with the men, some 10km people only did 5km, so there was mass-confusion about the placings. We had to stay behind to figure out the placings of everyone, but thankfully it was all verified in the end. Next time, the race organisers need to stagger the starts, make sure no women run in the mens start, and no 10km people bonk-out after 5km yet record their placings as 10km's. The craziest part however, was having 2 chutes to run into!! You could choose whichever one to finish in, therefore placings got all jumbled up depending on which chute you finished in. Race organizers should also time the race to verify results also. But all that aside, it was an awesome race and one I will definitely be running next year.
