In short: Excellent run on the edge of Salisbury Plain
In full: Good steady climb at the start and then mostly downhill apart from a little sting in the tail. Well organised, well marshalled a great mug at the finish with good food and good beer in the adjacent pub - what all runs should be

In short: Fantastic race, great organisation.
In full: Hats off the organisers of this great race. I entered on the day and for £8 (cheaper in advance) I got one of the best organised, friendly and challenging races I have run..including a free pint and a momento mug - hand made by a potter..!

This was my first win, nice prize giving ceremony where I was awarded my trophy by amd paralympic silver medalist..tough course with very windy conditions but if you take the first 2k steady you'll enjoy this race.

I will spread the word more widely next year as this race deserves at least 5 times the 120 who entered this year. Thanks and well done to thee organsiers.
