In short: Bit muddy and hilly -a rope would come in handy!
In full: Well planned course made very challenging race on a beautiful January day. Support from marshals and fellow runners was fantastic. Shame cakes sold so quickly. Mr Kipling's cakes cannot compete-sorry!

In short: Is it a hill or a cliff??
In full: Lovely course, hilly, muddy, great fun, only point of nuisance was no cakes left for slower runners at the finish.

In short: great fun, lovely scenery, very friendly and great marshalls
In full: I've done this the last 3 years and will be back again. Pewsey Vale deserve a medal for a great event. Its very friendly, hard but not so hard that it's not fun, almost all runable and beautiful scenery. lots of hills but mostly runable but its the mud that makes it hard - I swear my feet weighed ton by the time I finished. Only point for improvement - more cakes for us slowies as they had run out by the time I finished!
