In short: Even the rain couldn't spoil it!
In full: A lovely run with plenty of well positioned water stations and a great atmosphere amongst the runners. I somehow managed a PB. Rain and hills must suit me. Best T-shirt I've had from a race. Would definitely do it again!

In full: awful weather for this race. Nearly ducked when the starter gun went off! Well organised race which is challenging especially the last 4 miles which seemed to zap my strength. I will likely compete next year

In short: Will definitely do again. Terrible weather, well organised.
In full: Weather terrible, Well organised. More undulation than expected. XL T shirt bit tight could do with XXL for those of us with a fuller figure!
Fantastic scenery well worth the effort. Will definitely do again. Really enjoyed despite weather. 5 & 10 mile timings were great. Marshalls were fantastic very supportive.Water and sponge stations good frequency
