In short: Great weekend again!
In full: Once again a brilliant weekend. It has to be great value with free camping thrown in as well as the three events which are - as everyone else says - really well marshalled. The entertainment on Friday night went down well too. The weather was cooler on Sunday than usual, so my time was not as bad as it has been! Loved the mud on Saturday, my sort of run. Thanks again everyone.

In short: Great fun wooded part slippery due to all the rain, but you cant control the weather. Will be back next year.
In full: Great Event plenty for everyone including supporters. Friday BBQ, childrens entertainment, Bar, bouncy castles, Ice cream van, cake stall and I nearly forgot a great off road 5 Mile race. Keep up the good work.
