In short: Another good evening out with VOAAC
In full: Another year, another mug, and better still - another PB!
A loudhailer or PA system for the start would have been useful as I had difficulty in hearing the pre-race instructions (I don't think I was the only one).
But that would really be just icing on an otherwise tasty cake.

In short: Very well organised and friendly race in great location
In full: Really enjoyed this race, even though the uphill section on the way back was pretty hard going. Organisation was excellent and the marshalls were superb too. First race I have been to where there have been no queues for the toilet as well! Well done VOARC and thanks for a great evening race. Will definately be back next year.

In short: Gorgeous setting
In full: This was my 1st visit here and I enjoyed the opportunity to drive the course before the race to gauge the steepness of the hill. I used both water stations on the way up and would even have used a third had there been one. Thank you to all the marshalls/helpers and the Trust. I really enjoyed the evening.

In short: a game of two halves
In full: Could you arrange to have the stately home moved to the bottom of the hill so that we can get a negative split? Great location, scenery, organisation etc. See you in 2008.

In short: Loved the race!!!
In full: Fantastic race!!! I absolutely loved the race again this year!!!! I came in last again this year but I really loved the race. All the marshalls were very friendly and positive!!! I particularly enjoyed the last few hundred metres when everyone clapped me in!!! The organisation was fantastic and everything ran like clockwork.
No complaints from me!!! Loved the race! Will be here again next year!!!
