What our participants say
"I'm really impressed by all the work you've put into this event—it's definitely going to be a regular fixture on my calendar :-)"
"It's great to have ice cream at the concession stand—keep it up. Great commentary and support from the event staff. Impressive prizes."
"Great job, everyone. It's incredibly impressive what you've managed to accomplish in just a few months. My deepest respect."
"A superbly organized race with excellent event planning. Congratulations on a wonderful event. The little touches—like homemade treats, the king’s game, and more—at the venue really made a difference."
"An impressively varied race where no two stages are alike and the challenges come one after another. What the race has in common, however, is that it’s extremely well-organized and coordinated—and there’s even a little social bonus. Over the course of five days, relationships and friendships form among the runners. I’m already looking forward to next year. Awesome race. I’m sore—and happy :)"
"You deserve huge praise for a really well-organized race and some awesome routes 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻"
