Scream at my face (author review) ↗External published rating · 1 total, 1 visible review in the checked source.
Original 2015 graphic: 81 overall, 25 July at 11:00, nominal 10 km at ExCeL. The short original post and complete graphic form one participant account. The author likes aquatic obstacles and venue access but reports more queues and a 4.99% administration fee. The same author’s 2014 score of 90 is retained in that year’s written context without averaging or counting a second independent athlete. Finish time and every-obstacle completion in 2015 are unstated. The author’s original 21 May 2016 post explicitly establishes a 100-point scale and says earlier events were updated. The revised graphic’s published number is retained directly out of 100, without multiplying an old prose mark or averaging topic bars. The full original post and graphic were read; this is one historical author assessment, not an athlete aggregate or current-course guarantee. Full individual name, entry funding and unreported completion details remain unknown; other gallery images and videos are not claimed viewed.

Scream at my face (site author unnamed) · 2014
The writer enjoys two laps of varied aquatic obstacles, kayaking and a high jump, and praises registration and transport. They question event/photo prices and the timing pauses. The original graphic gives 90/100 overall on the author’s stated scale.
Complete original first-person text and linked graphic read. The graphic identifies 16 August 2014, ExCeL, 10 km and 90/100 overall. The writer reports a 90-minute finish excluding clocked-out obstacle periods, not a continuous elapsed result. One four-person team account, not four independent athlete reviews; assistance and every-obstacle completion are not established. The same author’s later 2015 score is displayed separately without averaging. Full author name and compensation unstated. Other photos/video not claimed viewed; the article’s general training advice is not imported. The original author’s May 2016 scale statement confirms revised earlier graphics use 100 points.

Media affiliation, Shelter-supplied photos and unknown entry funding disclosed. Not the author’s 50-minute observation of another runner. Images/videos not claimed viewed, and exercise/medical generalizations are excluded.

TrailsandAdventures (publishing account) · 2015
The writer enjoys the high slide, canoe section and waterside obstacles, finishes after help at the monkey bars and falling from a floating tube, and praises visible marshals and water support.
Complete original first-person ExCeL report read, published 17 August 2015. The account distinguishes London from Stockton but does not establish its exact raced day, measured distance or time. Finish, assistance and water fall are reported; no perfect obstacle outcome is inferred. Publishing account lacks an individual full byline here and compensation is unknown. Weather and water comments are personal impressions, not current safety claims. One source unit, no numerical overall. Photos and embedded videos not claimed viewed.

- The same author’s revised graphics give 90/100 in 2014 and 81/100 in 2015. The original May 2016 scale-change statement establishes the denominator. The later original score is displayed without averaging; the 2014 90-minute time excludes clocked-out obstacle periods. Stockton remains a separate event.
