In short: They've got it right first time!
In full: The inaugural Stinger 9 and Totton running club did a wonderful job. From assistance with a late entry to clockwork organisation on the day coupled with a gorgeous course taking in some challenging hills I can't think of anything that could be improved upon. Special mention to the legions of marshalls directing you at every turn and offering welcome encouragement - you did your club proud. in short I cant recommend this race highly enough.

In short: A beautifully organized, amazingly friendly, tough challenge amid glorious countryside
In full: The inaugural event of what ought to become an early summer off road classic. The course was a real toughie with long ascents and descents through beautiful New Forest countryside. The organization was superb and the marshals were probably the most vocal, friendly and supportive group of enthusiasts I have ever encountered. This race is a credit to Totton Running Club and from the appreciative comments I heard from my fellow runners it looks like we will all be back next year. I recommend that you join us. A huge thank you to all concerned.

In short: hottest day of the year!!
In full: A VERY hot day and a challenging course did not stop this being a special event. A first time for this course for the organisers Totton and an option to complete it as a relay; but to me, everything about it put many (and even some very large) events to shame - well spaced water stops, pleasant marshalls (that called you by name!! - a nice touch), brilliant goody bag for such a small event, results online exceptionally quickly and even asking for feedback after the race to see if anything could be improved on. DEFINITELY put this on your running list for next year folks
