In short: A bit like the curate's steak...tough in places!
In full: This race had a good feel and was a really good workout. Forget the PB's though, there are some pretty tough inclines!. Nice area to run but this was marred slightly by the traffic noise through some areas. They apologised for a detour through a park (due to roadworks) but this actually was a very pleasant diversion. The staff hung on in the cold, keeping the finish intact for the slow runners, an excellent practice which some organisers fail to do. Definitely worth the trip.

In short: Would definitely do it again - hill from hell not too bad - definitely agree with comments about innovative gents! Cold, foggy, wet day this year but worth the effort - I drove 240 miles to do it and would do so again. Many thanks.

In short: One word.... Fantastic!
In full: What a fantastic race!!! Can't fault any bit of it. The marshalling and organisation was great, and boy, this is one tough course - literally no flat bits. It's either up or down.... and most of the time it seemed to be up!

In short: Hard for a first race but a great challenge if you can do the hill from hell you can do anything.
In full: My first race loved every stride of it even on the hill from hell(i am sure i passed mountain goats near the top its that steep).Well organized great marshalls and spectators. Cant forget the sound T shirt and the fantastic cakes that are there in the community centre after the race that make this race worth running. Go for it you will love it!!!.
