Volunteers were plentiful and friendly, although not the most organized race iv'e been to as far as directions.
Maybe i'm used to a multitude of "race kit pick up", "wash station" signs, but i found myself asking where things were alot. There was a presumption that everyone had been to Blue Mountain before. Nope. (The faulty google map link didn't help - found a convoy of lost people at 7905 side road 36)
Lockers located at rental station office - 15$ deposit (was waved due to some reason - not sure why, but i rolled with it!)
As far as the race, there was only ONE water station - and although not the average time, by looking at the published chip times, some people were out for 4 hours!!! 4 hours, one water station. Not cool. I suggest adding at least two more stations, for everyone's sake. All i heard on the grind is "where's the water?" Thank goodness the weather was cool.
We had choice of a post race banana OR a beer... after not enough water, well, i chose banana. kinda had to :-(
The mountain makes this run. Yay Mountain! Good terrain, if this kinda run is new to you, you will feel the burn. :-) Obstacles are standard, all in good shape.
might still do this again next year... but also might hire a sherpa to bring me water. If i could give 2.5 stars, i would. More water stations, and i wouldn't be so cranky.
