In short: Good race
In full: a few hills but nothing major. Some sandy trails too!!
Thought it was a bit expensive but the goody bags n medals where probably one of the best had. :-)

In short: Well organised course, lovely scenery!
In full: Really enjoyed this race, nice variety of hills and flat bits with a definite down hill trend to the second half. Smashed my PB by 5 minutes, so a definite favourite!

In short: Great introduction to trail racing
In full: Perfect evening race! Gorgeous surroundings. However the distance markers were a bit few and far between., markers at 1k, 2k, 4k, then not until 7k, 8k, and 9k! Excellent goody bag and best medal yet!
