In short: Very enjoyable
In full: Steep climb for first 2K but just runnable for mere mortals. A few bits of road including nice downhill finish but mainly tracks and trails - oh! and lots of big puddles to splash through.

In short: Well organised, well marshalled and friendly - outstanding!
In full: Definitely not a course for PBs, but this event is truly worth doing. The course was 10km of undulating Devon countryside run mainly on trail and field. There could be plenty of potential for getting lost, but the organisation, marshalling and signing was exemplary. The Quarryman's Rest made all feel very welcome and as it was Bampton's Open Day, there is plenty to keep the non-running members of you family occupied whilst you run; I will be doing this race again next year.
