In short: Great race, but challenging!!
In full: Second time for me, must have been mad to come back to THOSE HILLS! But it is magnificent, one of the best races of the year, very very well marshalled, and very well organised, and of course great cakes! Will be back again next year!!

In short: Great scenery which you get plenty of time to take in as you stagger up the three steep hills!
In full: One of my most favourite races, with great scenery and punishing hills.

Great organisation and the marshalls with the jelly babies were really appreciated.

In short: A rollercoaster tour of the countryside
In full: This is another great cross country race in the Dorset area with stunning views. Very well organised with a unique finish running into a restored railway station offering loads of character and a good vantage point for spectators.
Forget 'hell runners' and other corporate pretenders - just run this along with The Beast and do a real challenge!
