“Great idea....to be repeated please! - It was a novel idea that worked well, to space out the disciplines over what was a brutally humid weekend in Dubai. Even though I did much of it alone, there was a feeling of community and being part of a team to raise funds for a worthy cause. Let's have something like that again please. Only things I would suggest would be shifting it to another time of year, and having some kind of live leaderboard / progress visibility. Credit to the organisers.”

“Great event and a great idea for a good cause - Well run event for a really good cause. Very good concept that allows people the flexibility to do as much or as little as they can to contribute. Only thing that would make it better is if the leaderboard on Strava was event specific rather that showing all of the activities for the week (this is a Strava limitation and beyond the control of the organisers)”

“I am in for any charity sports event - Obviously the character of this event makes it impossible to rate event pack, start finish, support, marshaling and the course since it was down to ourselves and therefor a 100% rating as were the 'give aways' and 'overall value' since that was not the purpose at all!!”

“Awesome event, need more of these! - Well done to the organisers for putting this so important event together! Easy to register/participate/complete given the full 3 days allowed. Nothing to improve, the format works very well, people are connected enough to find training/racing buddies. Only suggestion could be an informal racebriefing + drinks beforehand which gives time to share updates on backonyourbike & allow people to connect. Well done, awesome event! ”

“Great event - A terrific event for a great cause that pushed me to achieve a distance that I haven't done yet. I loved the sharing aspect of the Sunman Facebook page an Strava leaderboard. It was extremely hot at times and as this was the end of the school year fro many people, I wonder if it was moved to earlier in the year whether the Event would get more support.”
