In short: Quite tough as usual, but another great race from Tring RC
In full: Always very well organised and a highlight of the running year for me. The lovely views were a bit hidden by mist today, but very nice sitting in the warm sun afterwards with a bacon roll in my nice new 10/10/10 10:10 T shirt!

Only slight downer - went to Pitstone Hill for a picnic after and was horrified by the number of empty gel packets(now in my bin!). If you can carry them in full, you can carry them out empty!!!! Should be DQd if caught I reckon. There's no need for it anywhere, but especially not on this route!

In short: Quite a challenge for me having done a cross country race the day before, however, this was definitely worth turning up for. If you like off road with challenging hills this is for you!

In short: Excellent well marshalled run
In full: Excellent run on one of the best circuits through the ridgeway. Lots of singletrack and a couple of big hills. Nice place to start at Tring Cricket club, but consequent run back along the road (1-2 miles) kills in XC shoes. One of the best runs around and a nice distance.
