In short: A real early morning blast
In full: Having arrived through the darkness and fog it was great to see such stunning scenery. A tough course with steep up and downhills. Well marshalled on the course and everyone seemed to enjoy themselves or maybe they were grateful it was over. A good testing hilly run at closer to 11k than 10k, so more for your money.

In short: Gruelling
In full: Well organised, excellent event, and the brownies and flapjacks at the end are most welcome. Well done to the officials and organisers for all their hard work.

In short: Pain and flapjacks
In full: Superbly organised, as ever. Beautiful early sunshine on a cold winter's morning, and rounded off with flapjacks. Lovely .... and very hilly!

In short: Uplifting, helped by the sparkling weather
In full: Brilliant scenery, great but very challenging course with three major hill climbs. Good variety, sandy trails, woodland paths. open countryside. Wouldn't have been so much fun in the wet and wind, but then what is. Well worth getting up early for the ridiculous early start of 8.30
