In short: How to make a good race great? Just add snow
In full: I wes a little apprehensive about the snowy conditions before the start but the snow made the stagger a great run, as ever the marshals were excellent, overall a great race I would do again.

In short: wonderfullly different and friendly
In full: we entered this quite late and were glad we did so. The organisation was supurb and the marshals very friendly. Absolutely great training run for the Grizzly in a few weeks.
Hope the towel next year isn't pink though ;-))

In short: Easy conditions compared to some years - my worst time!.....
In full: .....I guess that is tempus fugit for you. Can we have a blue towel next year please?.... I'm getting too much stick down our club for using the pink one.

In short: Another great Stagger - thanks SRC
In full: Unusually the weather was really mild this year, and not too wet underfoot so no mud! The sandy bits were easy to run on as well. Ideal conditions for running this event. I liked the pink towel - I got a white one last year, so it was good to get a different colour this year and I don't think it was a 'girly' pink. Thanks to all the marshals and everyone else involved in this event - especially Ian!

In short: Very hilly and tough race but great scenery
In full: Good weather today helped. Very congested start at several stages in the early part - lots of stopping and single file - took a while before it opened out. Lost count of the hills an stiles i had to climb over. Certainly tough and not one for time but very enjoyable if you like running off road. Unusual pink towel when you cross the line instead of a medal - not sure how that will go down when i'm at my gym...lol

In short: Another successfull stagger. Great race, well organised but hard and unforgiving x-country course. Ran slower than I wanted to - will be back next year to tackle the stagger!!

In full: Thankfully dry underfoot again this year though very windy. Excellent race, well organised with great marshalls. Will be back again next year and for the Stumble in the summer.
