In short: Wonderful race and a great way to start x-mas
In full: Everyone really got into the spirit of the event with santa's everywhere + some reindeer, x-mas trees and all sorts of variations of the festive season.
It was definately muddy but was great fun and a race I would do again.
Loved the medal, and the mince pies and mulled wine at the end nice touch.

In short: Excellent race, mud glorious mud! Fabulous atmosphere amongst fun runners and club runners alike, love the festive medal - nice touch. A steep incline, twice makes it interesting.
In full: You can always rely on Martin and his team to deliver excellent races. Just how races should be. Such a bonus being on a Saturday too, can still fit in another cheeky race on Sunday too! Mince pies and mulled wine at the end, even a xmas pud, very generous. Well done to everyone and thank you.

In short: Great race, mud and hills and more mud!
In full: Great race, nice medal, lots of mud and twice up the entrance hill, which seemed alot longer 2nd time around! Followed by more mud. Not the full 5 miles but still Very enjoyable, will be back next year!
