For me personally the trip was fantastic. How could it not? Bhutan is such an incredible place. As expected the race was tough but it also exceeded expectations in every way possible. The route was magic, race day went off without a hitch and in the end I managed the find the finish line! (I missed a turn off so ended up running a fair bit more than I should have.. but that’s all part of it). The 4 day hike beforehand was the perfect preparation and I’m certainly very glad I decided to add it to my trip. We were spoilt with perfect weather, had far too much food and I personally enjoyed having very knowledgeable guides with very good English.
