In short: Has to be the toughest 10 mile race around!! Not for the faint hearted, but well worth it - i think!!!
In full: This is unique, flippin hard, yet damned satisfying at the end, especially with free beer and cakes. Fantastic route, totally off road, think I'd have got stuck in mud had it rained though! Marshalls were fabulous, i do not want to see another hill for some time!

In short: mile markers weren't quite accurate, extra water station would have been welcome
In full: Would do again as it's local, cheap, and easy course with excellent marshalling.

In short: Great off road race thru woods, bit tough!
In full: Fab race, very friendly and although moslty club runners, not at all intimidating. Excellently marshalled throughout, very undulating thru woods, interesting if wet and muddy!

In short: not exaclty designed for club runners
In full: Shambolic start - accidents waiting to happen when you have 5k rce with kids starting same time as 10 adult race, and narrow track makes for 1st walking pace only.
