In short: excellent fun
In full: Luckily the maltesers were larger than the hail stones. Lovely marshalls and fellow runners, course was a b*stard but so very scenic. Good chance of a negative split, very good tshirt, saved me buying a fluoro one.Thanks!

In full: The uphills were murder, the down were just glorious. The mud made it all the more fun and the marshals were incredibly friendly. Fantastic race and I would do it again, with a bit more hill training beforehand this time!
