In short: Challenging, great atmosphere, family friendly, fun, great prizes, fantastic race !
In full: This race was an experience to say the least! A fantastic mix of road, field, woodland, stiles, kissing gates & shoe sucking mud! I was entertained en-route by a choir, drummers, enthusiastic marshalls,& music!Well organised with fun run for the kids too! A great prize giving & party afterwards at the local pub.Great for families & singlies alike

In short: Wet, cold, deep, fierce, shoe-sucking mud.
In full: Excellent organisation and marshalling, a very friendly race but not for the faint-hearted. Free Mars bar, tea and fruit at the end with a hose to get rid of most of the mud.
