“WASTE OF MONEY:I did not participate - I was quite disappointed with the whole event. I joined it but I finally decide not to participate because it was too early in the night/morning, still cold and needed a wetsuit for swimming. What is the point on having the start of such a nice competition before the sun raises? Being on holidays in Dubai, I thought about a sunny and pleasant swim and running, but it was all organised to start being still dark.Why using a wetsuit for swimming in Dubai? Couldn't it have been organised better? It was a waste of money. ”

“Great event - Excellent, well-organized event and some nice giveaways this time. It's a pity the start has to be quite so early, but understandable given the sea planes. I could have done with one extra water station, e.g. at the big u-turn. Cheers!”
