In short: Nice course with a good mixture of abilities.
In full: Only one big hill which was nice after running down hill so much.Facilities were good and a friendly atmosphere. Getting the car stuck in the soggy field at the end was no big deal as everyone helped each other out. Added to the fun really!!

In short: Great race, well orgainsed - but momento let it down
In full: This is the second year i have entered and think it is a good race to start the year with. However, the momento this year - a cheap bag - meant that the £11.50 entry fee (including online entry charge)seemed very high. Will not enter again if that is the best they can offer the runners.

In short: Great course. Looking forward to next year
In full: First race of the year. Considering the date, the weather was good. Well organised. Muddy field for parking, but lots of help for anyone who did get stuck. Friendly atmosphere during and after the race. thank you. See you next year.

In short: A great, friendly race!
In full: Extremely friendly welcome for a first-timer! Marshalls were very helpful, even when pushing my car out of the mud! Course was great - enough flat and downhill sections to make up for the hill at 7k (which really wasn't that bad). I will definitely do this race again. Well done to the organisers!

In short: We've reviewed our definition of 'undulating' - will bring crampons for the hill at 7k next year!
In full: Really enjoyed this race. Found it a challenge but we both achieved PBs. Well organised, shame about the marshy ground in the car park!
