In short: A fun run that was fun to run!
In full: A very well organised pre-Christmas event Undulating rather than hilly and only 4.2 miles makes this perfect for fun runners. More serious runners may find the short and rather odd distance frustrating (It would be a great 10K) and think it is not worth travelling for but they would be wrong! Even some of the serious runners got into the spirit of things. Bar-humbug to the rest of you!

In short: Brilliant pre-Christmas race. Good atmosphere, fancy dress. Gets you in the mood.
In full: First Caper for a few years due to injury, illness etc. but glad to be back this year. Nothing's changed - it's still a super little Christmas race, with a pudding at the end for your trouble. Challenging inclines and encouraging marshalls. All in all, can't fault it and I'll be back.

In short: Very cold and slippery in places, but it is November!!
In full: This was my first Christmas caper run after watching my son run in 2 of the previous 3 years, the organisation was excellant and the marshalls very encouraging.Will be back next year in some type of costume. Thanks to all who were involved in the organising of the race
