Took part in my first hell & back during the weekend & loved it. If there was 10 stars I’d give it. From the warm up at the start to all the goodies at the end, it was so well ran. The team spirit was just fantastic. Everyone helped each other & had great craic along the way. Cannot wait to do my next one.
