I joined this event after hearing lots of positive stories from past runners. It turned out to be well organized and pretty enjoyable, just like their previous editions
– Didn’t experience any logistics hiccups (queues, hydration, etc).
– Sufficient hydration points placed along the route, and didn’t have to wait long for drinks.
– Saw all distance markers.
– Runners’ entitlement (singlet, towel, etc) seems to be of good quality.
For the 10k route, the last stretch with the very long u-turn was rather depressing for me. On the way to the u-turn, it felt very long and never-ending, and the thought of having to cover that long stretch again, after the u-turn was quite painful – just my personal experience.
And I was looking forward to wearing my first 2XU singlet, but it turned out their actual tee is much bigger than the online measurements. Its fine for them to have different sizing vs. other brands, but I feel that at the very least, online measurements should reflect actual size.
Nonetheless, its still an overall positive experience, and if I do join again next year, I’ll remember to downsize my singlet choice!
