In full: Nice local race, not one for a PB, but you won't be coming to it for that!

In full: well i knew it was going to be tough but blooming hell!. Thanx to all the wonderful marshalls especially the one at 8.75 (at the top of the north face of the eiger haha). Really cheerful and kept me going. Surprised i didn't go head over heels at the finish with trashed quads. Brilliant day. Well done hogweeds. One race for everyones diary - you'll love (and hate) it

In short: Breathtaking hills and scenery. Perfect organization, well done.
In full: The hills just keep on coming at you but there is an equal amount of down. The hill at mile 8 is the hill from hell, first time ever I've not been able to run up one. Perfect and friendly organization from what seems a small club, they should be proud. What scenery to run through!

In full: Couldn't fault the race organisation - the marshalls were fantastic & the jelly babies really welcome. The 'undulating' nature of the course helped the miles slip by!
