In full: Very scenic event, well organised, everything clearly labelled. The run itself was very nice through the beautiful scenery and trails and although a couple of hill nothing too strenuous.

A couple of gripes, I entered online in April and after paying my money had to then update my team entrants. I managed to get this wrong somehow, entirely my fault I'm sure but was not on the start list on arrival. Spoke to the info guy and had to pay £7.50 admin charge in order to actually get my number!! I've never entered an event where you have to update your runners details after they take your money. If I had turned up on the day I could have entered without paying the admin fee!!!! I know its only £7.50 but made me feel a bit ripped off.

A second issue was the lack of staff at the first car park at the end of the event, due to the rainfall numerous cars were stuck in the mud trying to pull out and spent half hour pushing other peoples cars out!

Other than these two issues the race itself was good fun, excellent doggy bag and had a great day, would do it again.
