In short: Fantastic scenery and organisation
In full: The wrong route would actually have made a better route, maybe next year the race should be run that way. It avoids the very steep descent on tarmac. Otherwise excellent all round. Beautiful photography!

In short: Great challenging route but disliked the hill on the road we had to do twice. 'Small' Tshirt huge on a slim woman - as usual, my partner gets one for the gym!

In short: Great way to spend a Sunday
In full: Very tough but wonderfully enjoyable.Trail shoes are needed or,just like me you will be slip sliding away. I was on that went the wrong way how we got back on track within minutes was a miracle. Very good value, lovely medal and t shirt and the cool bottle of stella at the end was great finishing touch,pardon the pun.

In short: A wonderful and tough race with plenty of potential for organisational improvement
In full: A nice race blessed with a bright sunny day. You can't manufacture tradition instantly so maybe less Dambusters at the start and more investment in organisation: losing the race through marshalling error and an extra 3/4 mile was a bad start in this respect and sits badly with a weighty £25 entry fee.
