A fantastic environment and great place for a challenging race. The medal looked amazing, a sign was blown down at one point which caused a 400 detour and the water station was set up in a poor place but I think over all a great event that I will sure to race again if it comes up. Richard C

Stunning location, super tough trails, gorgeous medal afterwards. Abi N
