In short: A mud bath and a half
In full: Probably the most fun I've had in mud since I was 8, only this time my mum didn't send me to bed early and stop me from watching Star Trek. This was really hard work, particularly over the last two miles. It's one of those races that just keeps throwing new challenges at you. Once you;ve negociated the puddles and the muddy fields there's a climb. The trail is so muddy by then that I practically skied down again before hitting the ice cold stream at the end. My only gripe: after all this a race memento would have been nice, but I suppose I will always have the mud engrained in my shoes to remind me. (It took two showers to get it off the rest of me.)

In short: Mud, glorious mud...
In full: A very muddy course no doubt helped along by the thawed snow and heavy rain the day before. A killer race when you didn't do as much training over Christmas as you should have!

In short: Mudtastic
In full: Another great race from the Thornbury runners. Perfect weather for it, well done! Super friendly marshalls (thanks to all). A very good idea to have the stream at the end to wash off the trainers.

In full: Perfect weather, sunshine with a slight chill to start. Perfect conditions, mud and water and hills, not too windy down by the Severn which was nice.
Thanks to all and well done.
