In short: First ever trail race, and loved it despite my snail pace! Plenty of other walkers up the hills, and great fun running down! Loads to keep the family entertained, can't wait til next year!

In short: Wow
In full: I loved it. Organisation was second to none, scenery breathtaking... drumming band at the start fantastic....all the other events excellent as well - great idea to have a challenge as well as the trail race itself... support on the route was great - jazz band part way round at the pub... good water stations too, and I seemed to be in the right place at the right time to get jelly babies :o) SUPERB race, super atmosphere.... spot on. Roll on next year.... have enterede nearly all of the other series races off the back of this one...

In short: Something for everyone, from elite runner to families.
In full: The most wonderful race I have ever done!Great atmosphere but not overly busy. Perfectly organised, stunning scenery, excellent registration. I did the challenge as I am not a fast runner, and I loved it. I would recommend this to anyone who wants to give trail running a go. The band were fanstastic too! Thanks to all the organisers for all their hard work.
