In short: Superb race, the scenery and organisation are 2nd to none
In full: Fantastic race, beautiful day to appreciate what must be one of the most beautiful places in the UK. Very well organised for a first staging. Great prizes (I got two of them) and goody bags.

In short: What a gem of a race!
In full: This is by far the best race I have ever ran. The scenery was gorgeous, an excellent route, and boy was it quick! I took 8 mins off my result from the GNR two weks ago! This will fill it super quick for next year so be quick if you want a place. I will certianly be back, if all races could be as good as this....
