In short: Beach, dunes, woods, paths.....and red squirrels. Fun the whole way.
In full: Friendly village atmosphere, lovely course if you forget the PB. Shame it's so overpriced now a major charity is organising it, rather than the village pool fund committee who did it for the first few years.

In short: Thoroughly enjoyable but hard - no PBs here !
In full: Thoroughly enjoyed this run though the dunes and soft, sandy paths are really demanding.
Disappointed that the distance markers were absent (mostly) or very hard to spot (my only criticism).
