In short: Great introduction to trail racing
In full: Perfect evening race! Gorgeous surroundings. However the distance markers were a bit few and far between., markers at 1k, 2k, 4k, then not until 7k, 8k, and 9k! Excellent goody bag and best medal yet!

In short: Fun but I think a bit expensive.
In full: I'm normally very positive but I was slightly disappointed about this one. I was expecting more trails. Instead it was a run through Moors Valley forest land. And mainly on the designated tracks within the forest. The entry fee was a little steep but I suppose this was offset by the goody bag at the end. Not sure if I would do it again. But overall a good run.
