In short: Fab way to spend a mid Summer evening
In full: Fantastic race again, well organised and very family friendly. Thankfully the weather was good. However,with the recent heavy rain made the course very slippy. A great race, see you in 2013 for my 4th Bolt!

In short: great first time experience of the bolt, but wont be last
In full: First time doing this course but really enjoyed the run, challenging in places with some positively swamp like trails in the forest, but maybe been near the back people in front of me made this worse, but great course with superb views and great organisation, will most definitely be back again next year!!

In short: Excellant well organized race.
In full: This has always been a superb event, it's been made all the better this year with the new changing/club house facilities.
Good mix of top club runners & first timers, great crowd support at the finish cheering all runners home.
