Mark Tinkler 3.43.17

Walking the 2km from the train station to the hotel and going up and down two ravines I thought this gonna hurt. And the twisty up and down course didn't disappoint - I mean sending us down a ravine at 30k and then spending the next 10k climbing to the finish- twas much harder than the MK marathon. The crowds in tight packed streets of Luxembourg were having a wild party and the finish was like running into to packed nightclub dry ice flashing lights full disco with the DJ screaming your name - more akin to Ironman. Suppose my favourite bit was the fairy grotto light village at the bottom of the ravine once I convinced my self it was real and I wasn't hallucinating. Definitely, if you like the unusual, one to do especially if you like doing things in the dark but don't expect a pb unless you've got mountain goat somewhere in your genetics!! Which I haven't I would like to point out.
