In short: Hard uphills. Quick downhills. Well worth it!!!!!!!!
In full: My first organised race of any type and distance. A baptism of fire. Hard work but definitely worth it. Views must be seen to be believed.

In short: TARMAC hills :-)
In full: Makes a change from running trails and fells. Still pretty steep in places, but some lovely downhills make it very rewarding. Smoothly organised by very friendly runners, a great run to do on a summer evening! Watch out for those lovely views on top of those steep hills :-)

In short: Brilliant course, maybe there's a steeper route in the Andes, don't believe the "climb for 1.5 miles" stuff, I made only the last 100 yards downhill }:-)

In short: Brilliant views and the race gives you a real sense of achievement when you finish
In full: A lovely evening in a beautiful setting. Not a personal best course but it is challenging so a great feeling when you finish.
The organisation and marshalling was great and it was a friendly bunch of runners which helped when doing it for the first time.
The water stations were very welcoming and I'm so glad that I decided to run it.

In short: Superb uplifting race in glorious forestry, A real must-do.
In full: Up hill to mile 2 then from 2.5 to 4. Mostly massive downhills to the end after that. Glorious views. Overly generous goodies and provisions at the finish and a superb race. So good I could have run it twice. Would have liked mile markers, 1 water station which you pass twice was plenty. Well marshalled and traffic free.
