In short: A very challenging, but enjoyable race
In full: I really enjoyed this one! 5 minutes off a PB, but that is running the forests for you!
The event was well organised and marshals were very friendly and encouraging. I'd recommend this to anyone with staying power as those hills are FULL ON!

In short: Fantastic race, very hard but worth it!
In full: Given the heat could have done with an extra drinks station. But otherwise excellent. Great scenery mostly good going underfoot. Very hilly so a must if you want a challenge.

In short: Nice change to road races, well organised
In full: There are a few mild undulations (eek!) and one of these is at the very end, so no sprint finish for me. Beautiful course, much nicer than pavements, good camaraderie among those of us nearer the back, well organised and marshaled. Don't expect a PB, but for a tenner, well worth doing.

In short: Fairly tough event on forest trails. Quite a climb at the end.
