In short: Great event again - thanks SRC
In full: A few people have commented on the lack of facilities - and it was a shame that we did not have use of the school as we have previously - other than that, excellent. It was also great to get a towel at the end. A number of people were commenting that it was good to get something that you could use. Great scenary, friendly marshals.

In short: Very pleasant course and company, good introduction to off road running
In full: The course runs through some pleasant scenery and is nicely varied with a few hills in it to keep things interesting and some very pleasant fast descents off the back of them as compensation. Conditions under foot were really rather good most of the way round, only a few places where it was a bit muddy, but nothing compared to May Hill, could at a push have done in road shoes (if you didn't mind getting them mucky)

This was my first race in over a year and I really enjoyed it. I may well be back and I'd recommend it to anyone, but especially to anyone who's considering giving the off road running thing a bit of a go.

In full: I have completed marathons and not even ached the next day, after this I went home and slept and ached the next day, but it was worth it, loved every minute, even the mud. This was my first cross country, great experience.

In short: Always one to look forward to!
In full: Another great event by the good folks from Stourbridge Running Club! Seamless organisation, great stewarding, and a suitably difficult course - with a nice mix of all terrain! I'll be looking forward to the Stourbridge Stumble come August.

In short: A welcome change to the myriads of 'on-road' events. Also great to get mucky without getting told off!
