In full: Marshalling good. 3 water stations. Actually quite hilly, nothing major but not really flat. Good scenery and just a nice run.

In full: This race captures the flavour of a Fell Race but in the Chilterns. A great day and results up same day! Well done Vale of Aytlesbury.

In short: Perfect...but marshalling issues
In full: Really great, friendly race..and a lung buster, but issues with the marshalling past the top of the monument, sending quite a few people off course. Cost the first woman around 1 minute. Great otherwise...

In short: A well run race in the country along mainly quiet lanes. Probably too many rolling inclines to get a really quick time. Excellent value for money. Even get given a goody bag. Well worth doing more than once. This will be my 5th year running.
