In short: Fantastic course
In full: Another fantastic event from Quest.
The course was tougher then the Avalanche course run on the site earlier this year. Lots of water including a lake to cross/swim and the climbing nets were a nice addition. I think I'll be smelling of swamp for a while though.

In short: Excellent fun
In full: Well done to the organisers for going ahead in snowy conditions. The snow just added to the challenge of the race. There were more obstacles then last year to make it more challenging. I was dissapointed to see a high number of front runners skipping obstacles though. Overall I really enjojed it and will be back next year.

In short: Really enjoyed this race.
In full: Really enjoyed this race. Thought it was well organised the only issue being was some waiting around for the presentation but that gave me time to warm down anyway so that suited me. I competed in the Farmyard Frolick last year which is also a Quest Event so knew what to expect and it didn't dissapoint. Will be entering next year without a doubt.
