In full: I only did the 1/2, the full is too far for me. I don't think that you could find a more scenic route anywhere, the views from the top of the hills across the vale are stunning. A few teething troubles with route markers but it is a trail race and I am sure they will be sorted for next year.

In full: firstly the criticisms for this event.the markers for the route were at times difficult to follow and a couple of points there were no markers or marshalls showing runners where to go.this was very unfair on the front runners who had to stop and wait to ask other athlete's where to go! on an up,probably one of the nicest routes i have ever done.if the route can be made much clearer to follow i would definately come back next year to give it a crack.sadly i could not complete the full marathon and had to do the half as felt unwell so want to come back to complete the full 28 next year
