In short: Beautiful scenery, nice off-road variety. Superbly organised
In full: Challenging but with very encouraging marshalls in place at regular intervals you were pushed onwards. Good extras in place at start and finish, facilities excellent and all very welcoming.

In full: great low key race through picturesque countryside. a mixture of road, track, grass and mud, though it was firm underfoot due to the good weather over the past week. excellent organisation and well marshalled. nice touch with the medal and goodie bag. easy to find and to park. well done to all involved.

In short: Quality and quantity with marshals - lots of them and very enthusiastic! Lovely day, great scenery. Bit bumpy under foot, no PBs here. Very well run by lovely people. I hope they do it again next year!

In short: Lovely day lovel;y run
In full: A well organised and enjoyable run. A bit of a shame its the same week-end as the Bayer 10 which may have impacted the low turnout.

Very friendly and for me local; so I would definitely do again. Its 5.4 miles but I dont understand why we need to do two laps of the field (without which I guess iot would be 5.3 miles??)
