In short: Blimey them hills are hard!
In full: I came with hopes of getting a new pb, these were dashed the instant I turned the corner and saw the hill I'd be running up, not once, but twice! It is a hard run, but topping the hill and them bombing down the main straight towards Longleat House is a joy to behold.

In short: Hills!
In full: Brilliant run! Nice scenery, good atmosphere and challenging. Word of warning, if your not fit, it's difficult, around 3 long and steep hills that left many walking. Usual loo queues 100 deep, but they had a lot of products waiting for you at the finish line, including a nice medal. Worth it!
