In full: A lovely off road run through the beautiful grounds of Historic Hatfield House. Child and dog friendly arrangements, a band to help you blast across the finish line and massage available at the end. Easy to find and park.

In short: Broke my target of 40mins by over a minute! With the added bonus of also winning - what a day!
In full: The weather was perfect! A bit on the cool side, but dry and hardly a breath of wind.

Before the start we had a really nice warm-up session. There were plenty of very encouraging marshals, a finishing band, and an excellent bunch of spectators at the finish area to really help with that final sprint!

In short: Great location, extremely well organised, fun atmosphere, well planned route.
In full: Willow Foundation run by retired footballer Bob Wilson and his wife. They have managed to create a family atmosphere with their close involvement and great volunteer helpers. Over 600 participants enjoying a great race, in a great location and for a great cause.
