In short: Challenging race with a good atmosphere.
In full: Great setting and friendly atmosphere. A challenging course with some long, steep, off-road inclines. Not PB territory, but an enjoyable and interesting route. Plenty of water stations - a well organised event and a great day out.

In short: Mainly off-road and undulating, so don't expect a PB, but a very pleasant event, with lots of prizes and free entry to a lovely show - even if the Morris dancers were a bit delayed at the pub.
