In short: thanks to the organisers for a great event
In full: Challenging but also great fun course. Not quite as hard as I expected, but it would have been tougher if there had been rain and more mud, so I think we got off lightly. Great day out, good atmosphere and smiles all round.

In short: Another excellent Rough 'n' Tumble...
In full: As ever the organisers have delivered a spectacular start to the year. Fouth time running this but it never gets easier and I always forget how hard it is... The weather yesterday was superb - cold and sunny, with glorious views from the high ground (made all the more glorious by the effort required to get that high).
Great cakes, and a good idea to move tea outside the hall too.
All in all a magic race - if you only ever do one off-road race do this one. Just make sure you don't underestimate it!

In short: Great start to the year.
In full: This race is worth the 196 mile round trip. I have to make to take part. The race organisers strive to make improvements and are well rewarded with a sell out event.

In short: Hardest Race i've done in a long Time - Roll on Next Year
In full: What a great day. Very Hard event with a Hill that needed 'Rope and Tackle' to get up. Supebly organised and the enthusiasm of the Marshalls and Locals was excellent.
This is what Trail/Off Road Running is all about. Big Thumbs Up to all that organised and took part. See you all next Year.
