In short: Thanks for another enjoyable race!
In full: It was superbly organised and the weather couldn't have been better, following the snow! I opted for the 10k and got round. Fewer fun-runners and beginners this year, I thought, which is a shame as it's an ideal event for those not pursuing fast times. Sloppy, slippery mud on the field sections caused a few problems. Who was the poor lady who lost a shoe about five seconds after the start and had to fight her way back through the mass of runners?! I could have done with three pairs of different shoes for the different sections. I will run again in March but not sure about increasing the distance to 15k!

In short: Great Series
In full: The beauty of this event is the location... fabulous - no hang on its the fact there are three events and you can tale your pick ....no it's really the organisation - very slick - it could be the reception when you get in or just all of these things coming together to make a great event - Well Done Just Racing.

In short: getting good at mud now!
In full: Not so good at computer stuff, this is for 2006 really. Might do 3rd round, but 1800 - 0600 nightshifts sat, sun, mon, tue that w/e + 23 mile drive to irchester, so a bit of time management required! Great race.

In short: Commentary (which was good) was only bit of atmosphere.
In full: Very disappointed.
Seemed very cliquey, some marshalls not paying attention so people went wrong way & also made derogatory comments about pace - which is very demoralising! Barriers replaced before race ended! so turned into hurdles! Thanks very much!! Not exactly beginner friendly or encouraging.
Start was pretty chaotic - had no idea what direction, when etc.

In short: Fantastic Day for It!
In full: The weather and the amusing ongoing commentary made the race for me. Disappointed that it was measured short, I'm not sure how fast I was running now. It would great to know how far it really was.
