In short: Don't let the 2-3 hills put you off! This race has a v. friendly atmosphere and wonderful scenery; definitely one to put on the calendar for next year!
In full: Small field (4-500 ish?) but what it lacks in numbers it more than makes up for in atmosphere and scenery. Yes, the course is tough if you don't do much hill work, but there are only 2 longish slopes and the scenery takes your mind off such trivialities. What scenery? The two castles, misty fields fading into the distance, small lake, statues, woods etc. In a nutshell, something for everyone! Most enjoyable race I've done so far and definitely recommended.
