In short: Enjoyable, worth doing, enjoyed all the mud and water
In full: Good course with the 10K over 2 lapsmud and water made it very tough, espically on second lap. Cross country trainers a must, bad enogh to get a grip with those on, so without who knows.

In short: Mud, mud, mud and more mud. Tough but good fun
In full: Ran the 15k and can honestly say it was the hardest run I've ever done.Organisation was excellent with lots of marshalls (shame most of them didn't encourage the runners too much). Would definately do again

In short: Very enjoyable, the hill did not disappoint, plenty of mud.
In full: My first 10k at this event. Friendly bunch of runners, good organisation and well marshalled. Difficult to keep on your feet at times, particularly the area around the 'lake'. Will definitely return.

In short: fantasic although very muddy and slippy!
In full: Yet again it did not disappoint. Went for the 15k this time, not sure i really had wanted to swim through the lake a third time tho. Great organisation, great crowd - enough said!

In short: Excellent race, exceedingly muddy, but hey
In full: Enjoyed the race, really muddy this time round with lots of large puddles (which are more like ponds) to run through. Prepare to get wet and muddy but enjoyable none the less.

In short: Excellent
In full: Not as muddy as expected, but the lake near the start made up for that. Ran like clockwork - not me, the event!
