In short: Poor martialling sent runners the wrong way at one point
In full: Tough course with fantastic scenery. Views of Bath and Bristol from the hills.

In short: Fantastic scenery and organisation
In full: The wrong route would actually have made a better route, maybe next year the race should be run that way. It avoids the very steep descent on tarmac. Otherwise excellent all round. Beautiful photography!

In short: Great challenging route but disliked the hill on the road we had to do twice. 'Small' Tshirt huge on a slim woman - as usual, my partner gets one for the gym!

In short: Great way to spend a Sunday
In full: Very tough but wonderfully enjoyable.Trail shoes are needed or,just like me you will be slip sliding away. I was on that went the wrong way how we got back on track within minutes was a miracle. Very good value, lovely medal and t shirt and the cool bottle of stella at the end was great finishing touch,pardon the pun.

In short: I was woefully underprepared for how hard it would be, great race though. I do this again in a heartbeat.
