In short: good family orientated race
In full: Enjoyed the race a lot, although the course was quite rutted and hard going at times. Otherwise well organised and not far short of a PB. Will be back next year.

In short: Once again, a well organised and friendly race.
In full: Great weather for the show, a bit warm for runners, but a nice breeze kept us cool. Callenging, but interesting course - a few steep climbs, but a couple of long downhills as well. A great day out.

In short: Challenging race with a good atmosphere.
In full: Great setting and friendly atmosphere. A challenging course with some long, steep, off-road inclines. Not PB territory, but an enjoyable and interesting route. Plenty of water stations - a well organised event and a great day out.
