In full: Stunning setting for a great race. Just challenging enough to make it perfect. The sun shone which made it a magical run back along the beach. I loved every second and would do it agaain.

In short: Tired and muddy but fab race, found it hard going but the views!!! Worth every ache + every penny!y
In full: The organisation and the friendliness of the marshalls, officials and runners was great - the course was, for me, very challenging but I ran/walked some of it and due to being near the back didnot have any bottlenecks except for the climb up to Agglestone rock. But I can imagine for the faster runners the course could get a bit conjested. I was dreading the run along the beach to the finish but that was OK (even the naturists were out support us!!) - it was running through the sand dunes to get to the beach which was the killer!! The sceanery was just fantastic and what a glorious morning - it was just paradise - I absolutely loved it - mud and all!! I will definately be back next year!

In short: Sand, Sand and naked people
In full: I finished this race this morning and it was harder than I had expected. The trail is pretty tore up with mud, rocks and deep puddles. The largest hill was steep but brief and the trail was so narrow we were luckily forced to walk it. This was a challenging off road race. There was a gate we had to jump and the dunes were difficult to run through. They could have used another water station and designated waste area. The scenery on this race, if you ever get the chance to look up, is fantastic. Even on the drive there you pass Corfe Castle. This is the kind of race you'll remember and be proud of, but because of the dunes I don't know if I would do this again.

In short: Wonderful! Glorious views, a bit of mud and a hill or two
In full: Very well organised too - not as tough as I expected, also they could have encouraged a better class of nudist on the nudist beach ;)
