In short: Friendly, well organised and fun, if hillier than expected
In full: 1st time on this race and I will be back. Great organisation, friendly race, and liked the starter's stand up routine! Nice scenic course, but I never realised Garstang was so hilly.

In short: well organised interesting race
In full: Really enjoyed the race, quite challenging in parts but much prefer this type of race to flat ones, they bore me silly. Well done to organisers and marshals,will be back next year.

In short: playful hills, nice cup of tea
In full: Really well organised race. It helps that it's set in a school, plenty of shelter, and a good value canteen selling post race tea and excellent cakes!! The course is a bit challenging with the odd hill but beautiful scenery took the edge off. Very well orgnaised, plenty of marshalls, will definitely try again next year :-)
