In short: Enjoyed the run, though not much chance of a personal best as some of the hiils were hard work. Might be me being a stinge, but I thought the coffee and cake at the tea van were overe priced.

In short: Mudtastic fun
In full: Thanks to all the marshalls for helping to stage this one, had a great time.
The mud and ice made it a little challenging, but then that's half the fun.
Improved on last years time by around 17mins and thoroughly enjoyed it.
Schedule permitting will be back next year.

In short: third year running(no pun intended) i have done this race,some tough challenges & some good surfaces to increase your tempo on. shame about the weather compared to last year. a shoe in for 09
In full: would like to have improved on last year but not to be may be because of the cold and wind or just slowing down?.momento has improved and race is still a must from now on. marshalling was excellent, thanks to all who did such a fantastic job with loads of encouragement. c u in 09

In short: Good, hard race but disappointing organisation
In full: Most of the marshalling was excellent but my group were held up at a road crossing by marshalls for what felt like ages. We watched in disbelief as the runners ahead of us disappeared into the distance and those we had worked hard to get ahead of caught us up. Never seen that before.
