In short: Yes it was tough!
In full: Tough hills but a lovely course on quiet country lanes. Excellent organisation and super efficient marshals who were very vocal in their support to the runners. A bit quiet overall but the atmosphere is bound to get better when word gets out and numbers increase. Well done LBAC.

In short: Tough course but great race
In full: A tough course but scenic and fun, and anyway you can't say we weren't warned!

Very well organised, road closures much appreciated, a marshalling masterclass at the road crossings, and the marshalls were all voiciferous, friendly and encouraging.

Nice race momento, food and energy drinks at the finish, great value for money.

Well done LBAC, this event can only get bigger!
