In short: An amazing race which will push your limits who ever you are!
In full: Not a race to be underestimated. Superb organisation with excellent marking throughout the 30 mile and a bit route. The extra bit at the end had me spitting fire swearing i'd never do it again! Nevertheless I'm looking forward to round two.
Painful but brilliant race can't recommend it enough!!!

In short: Forget your pb but what a race
In full: I have competed in many good ultras but this is a real highlight. The weather was red hot which for Oct 1st is unheard of but with that came crystal clear skies. The scenery on this event was the best i've experienced bar none. The course was so hard with killer climbs, technical trails and steep descents. The descent across the dragons back was a real treat and probably one of the best i've ever run.. If you get chance you must do this race. Bring on round 2.
