In short: Excellent XC
In full: Although I moaned at the end that I wouldn't do it again - I will!! And I will beat my time next year. Hills in the right places, cruel that we had to run past the finish for the first lap (!), loads of mud - waffles, spikes, hobnail boots are a must (ok not the boots!), very very friendly race - everyone is encouraged. Well done SLH!

In short: back to basics XC
In full: Positives - Great course
- Good atmosphere
- Well priced entry which means they don't mess around with event tshirts.
Negatives - I know its traditional to have XC events on a saturday but it will mean I will not be able to run in some years due to football.

In short: really good race well marshelled
In full: First time for this race, loads of club runners but a very friendly atmosphere with loads of really positive marshals. The nice sunny day helped but the mud was terrible in places even with off road shoes. No water stops, one would of been nice and a bit of a trek to the club house which we skipped.
Really enjoyed the club feel of this race well done.
