In short: Absolutely marvellous fun
In full: This was all I could ever want in a run: small and well organsed with stunning scenery, friendly and encouraging marshalls and lots of mud. I finished with a big grin on my face and am already looking forward to doing it next year.

In short: Sometimes I spent more time going sideways in the mud than forwards....
In full: Wasn't sure if I should due to a knee injury but glad I did. Very much fun was had, tarmac, track, and mud on gently rolling land. Views to Silbury Hill, the Ridgeway and various Barrows. Very friendly and encouraging marshalls and fellow competitors. My last race of the year and good to go out with a big smile on my face.
