In short: Fab 2K fun run.
In full: Did 2K with my 7 year old daughter. We really enjoyed the day and had a lovely run. Junior t-shirts ran out before we finished which was a great shame and my daughter took that hard! Dr Rob has however emailed to say he will order her one, hooray. It's not about the goodie bag... unless you are 7!
My daughter and I love this run together and will be back next year.

In short: More hilly than expected. Frugal but competent organization. A race for purists: the ones that run for running's sake.

In short: It is a great run on my doorstep - how can it be any better!!!
In full: Yep the hornets were the worst thing about this years run - hoping the local Estate Office will do something about them - keep up the good work Mr McCaffery!!

In short: I was returning to running after having my two children and was very nervous about enterning a race again. But this was an excellent race to take part in . Felt very welcome and enjoyed every minute of it - except for the angry hornets!!

In short: Generally very enjoyable, only minor negatives
In full: Very pleasant canter round the Surrey countryside with no traffic distractions. Minor irritation was that most people could not hear the person with the mike just before the race, but it didn't seem to matter. Nice T-shirt at the end; another water station would have made things a bit easier, but organisation and friendliness scored strongly. Would go back next time.

In full: A great familly atmosphere, beautiful site, and mix of terrain. A great introduction to trail running or a way to push your PB
