In short: Excellent race, really enjoyed it. Tough on the sand but fun. All helped by gorgeous weather and a dip in the sea to ease off tired legs. Could of done with one more water station considering hot weather.

In short: Challenging race and great sea cool down!
In full: As a first time runner of stampede really enjoyed the challenges: sand, fences, big puddles and beach start/finish. Weather fab and standing in the sea after to cool down those aching muscles was heaven. Definitely will do again next year.

In short: Wonderful scenery, muddy & sandy
In full: Testing start, lots of jumping around puddles and the sandy tracks towards the end of the heath can be draining. I really enjoyed the final beach 2k in the sun but the nudist's were a tad off putting!

In full: Stunning setting for a great race. Just challenging enough to make it perfect. The sun shone which made it a magical run back along the beach. I loved every second and would do it agaain.
