In short: Brilliant!! Most Enjoyable way of seeing in the new year
In full: Verry Muddy. Lots of lost trainers. A few slips and slides and even a marriage proposal on the top. Hope she said Yes after all that effort.
Look forward to doing it all again next year. Many Thanks to Truro Running Club for the Organisation Well Done every one that Took Part....

In short: Thanks again for a great start to 2011
In full: The ground was a bit more forgiving this year than last year when it was rock hard! The view from the top was not so clear, but at least there was no wind up there. Sometimes it is difficult to stand up at the top. A great start to the year, thanks for the fridge magnet, although I have loved the pictures over the last few years!

In short: That'll work off the previous nights excesses
In full: 3rd year running I have done this. Nornally drive down from Bristol but stayed nearby so was burning off the guinness. Excellent way to start the new year. Well marshalled & yet again a nice little memento for a free run (Hope the charity box was full) Fridge magnet an original idea

In short: great start to the New Year - demanding but rewarding
In full: Great X country with do-able hills apart from the last part of Brown Willy which most people walk up. Be prepared for all weathers and allow for 70 odd mins of running (if 55 min 10k paced road runner).
