In short: Tough but enjoyable, lots of muddy fields and trails, good organisation and checkpoints
In full: A real oddysey of South Yorkshire, from active, disused and regenerated coal mines and mining areas across beautiful parks and countryside and taking in some of the very pretty villages to be found here as well as some pretty ropey areas. My first, so i'm no expert but i really enjoyed this.

In short: A well organised trail race. Not for the faint hearted but definitely for those looking for that something different.
