In short: Mud, glorious mud...
In full: A very muddy course no doubt helped along by the thawed snow and heavy rain the day before. A killer race when you didn't do as much training over Christmas as you should have!

In short: Mudtastic
In full: Another great race from the Thornbury runners. Perfect weather for it, well done! Super friendly marshalls (thanks to all). A very good idea to have the stream at the end to wash off the trainers.

In short: Great race
In full: Perfect weather, sunshine with a slight chill to start. Perfect conditions, mud and water and hills, not too windy down by the Severn which was nice.
Thanks to all and well done.

In short: A magnificent mud-fest on what turned out to be the finest day so far this year
In full: Loads of mud, as advertised, with some cheeky hills thrown in. Well organised, with yummy cakes at the end. Cheers Thornbury.
