In short: Enjoyed this low key event !
In full: The water stations were well stocked with sweets, gels and squash as well as water. Really enjoyed the course though it could have done with just a couple more signs on the way back.
Give it a go, You'll enjoy it!

In short: Good intentions, poor directions especially on the return let this event down
In full: Quite well organised, though no mention that the start was so far from the race HQ.Well stocked and plenty of checkpoints.Poor signage in places,especially on the return had runners going off course.Also no mention of the extremely high car park prices - £8.20 for slower runners !

In short: friendly, challenging race. Great marshalls but would benefit from a few more
In full: Great run although i wouldnt have said that at mile 22. I enjoyed the different terrains and the associated challenges. especially good was passing runners coming the other way who were very friendly creating a community atmosphere. There were a couple of places where it would have been easy to go the wrong way but only needs minor tweeking. The marshalls were very friendly and im sure everyone would join me in thanking them for their support.
loved the burger at the end, just what i needed.
my only negative comment is i was expecting a t-shirt but didnt receive one,
All in all a good race which with a few adjustments will be a great one, 12 ran from my club and im sure we will all be back next year.. Thank you to the organisers.
