In short: Great route.
In full: Having done this for a few years this was the best route yet, especially the woodland start. As ever, it ran like clockwork and parking is as easy and convenient as they come. The pie van at the end was a welcome addition. The distance makes this a very handy start of the year training run.

In short: 8.2 is a nice change. Easy and well-organised canalside run.
In full: Personally I'd prefer more off-road. My trail shoes were perfect for the canal and woods but made my legs ache on the roads!I like it as its my home area, so a training run for me.

In short: Brilliant course, lovely scenery..
In full: Loved this course, found the steps at the end a tad tough, will definetly be back next year. Did not appreciate the lady running with the 2 dogs though, kept getting in the way! :(

In short: I live within 1/2 mile of part of the course and know just about every cm of the route but it is still one of my favorite races and would travel a long way to run it!

In short: A great way to start the New Year with a well organised 2.09 multi-terrain race.
In full: ! have run this race for the last 3 years and have experienced the various course changes along the way. The latest improved route is mainly off road with 3 minor hills on the short road sections with a nice fast downhill before the finish at Lakeside.
