In short: beautifully organised, challenging but fun
In full: Yes it was tough but a challenge well worth attempting. I particularly enjoyed the bucket of chocolate bars!! Many thanks to all for organising a stunning event

In short: May convert you to the Organiser's Mantra that "Hills are fun"
In full: Despite the wettest June on record, the clouds held off for the run itself. some long and challenging uphills and some muddy boggy patches mean this will not give PB potential, but great views, great organisation. I especially liked the handshake at the end for every runner from the Race Director and the chocoate bar! Marshalls, mainly girl guides, were excellent and encouraging.

In short: Challenging but fun too
In full: Two long uphills, one of which was extremely boggy, plus one long downhill made this challenging and fun. Very little chance of a pb, but there are races like that out there so live with it. One very nice touch was the race director greeting every runner at the end with a 'hope you enjoyed it' and a handshake.
