Sir,
It is a pleasure writing this list. Because it has been a pleasure to bring an event to the Isle of Arran, meet so many residents, and to receive your immediate kind words of praise for the event. From our point of view the event was very successful. Now I don’t measure that based on the number of entries or the lack of injuries (though I am sure there are a few fatigue niggles – it was tough!) but based on the participant feedback. They loved it! We gave them more than two Ultras! We gave them almost four days of adventure tourism – enough time for them to sample ‘many of the many’ attributes of the island, and we look forward to coming back next year!
You may know that both the event and the participants made donations to the Arran Trust, and that the preferred charity for Rat Race Adventure Events is Children with Cancer UK, and for whom the participants raised a stunning £1M in 2017.
