Es war wieder ein tolles Erlebnis. Von der Organisation über den Ablauf, die Streckenmarkierung (die reflektierenden Bänder sind viel besser als die bisherigen Streifen) bis zu den Verpflegungsstellen
war alles top. 24 Stunden nur nette Menschen auf und neben der Strecke.
Ich will mir gar nicht ausmalen, was da an Arbeit drinsteckt. Vielen Dank an alle für alles 🙏🙏
