In short: Brilliant race despite the mud and hills.
In full: This is the first time I've run this race despite marshalling for several years. Brilliant organisation and I must say a huge thank you to all the marshals for standing out in the rain waiting for us slower runners with a cheer and smile on their faces. Well done.

In short: 4th year of this great race but only the first time I've done it. Wondering why I didn't run this before, such a fantastic race.
In full: Firstly well done to Peter Foster and all the Vigo runners/supporters. 1st time I've run this race despite living locally, will definitely be running this again next year.

Marshals were very friendly and the water stop was in just the right place and well needed.

As for that hill I ran half of it so my aim for next year is to make it all the way to the top.

In short: Fantastic first event, would definitely do it again next year.
In full: Really good first time event but give it a miss if you want to achieve a pb.

The name of the event says it all, 666 is a devilish run with good friendly marshals.

In short: Good FLM preparation race
In full: Some marshalls had to be asked which way we had to run, which was a tad annoying after the fifth time of asking.
Overall though it was a good race, a few too many hills and that last mile was wicked, making us run past the finish line with 1.5 miles still to go.

In short: Very good organised race.
In full: t-shirt was very good and will come in handy for training in the future.

I must agree with other comments, Pot Noodle? The mens deodorant? As the start was split up into women and men I was suprised there wasn't a womens alternative.

As a local race this was good and I will definately be back next year.

In short: This was my second year and the crowds really made a difference.
In full: The total lack of water for us slower runners was abismas. People were getting half filled bottles from the kirb just to get some drinking water. I'm not suprised at the amount of casualties.

In full: This is the 3rd year running I've done this race and still enjoy it. A big thank you to all the marshalls, encouraging everyone especially us slower runners. Good organisation and weather wasn't bad either

In short: This was my second year and I forgot how many hills there were.
In full: A Special thanks must go to all the supporters along the way. Without them I don't think it would be the same.

In short: Brilliant Marshalls
In full: AS I was one of the ones finishing in the downpour I want to thank all the marshalls who stayed out to support us slower runners. Your support made a great difference, thanks for the winegums and jelly babies too.
