In short: Excellent race
In full: Amazing day, great course, awesome prep from the organisers from the website/info to the course marking, and incredible marshalls/checkpoint folk, and all for £20:-) Only tweaks I'd make for next year are make dropping litter = disqualification, and definitely go ahead with the plans for a double Sat/Sun race!

In short: Perfect New Year half!
In full: I'm a relative novice (5 races last year including 2 halfs), and this was the smallest race I've run by miles. Was a bit nervous thinking that being smaller it would be stacked with real hardcore maniacs running 1:10, but the spread of times was about the same as in the big races I've run - only it was infinitely more pleasant. It was well organised and marshalled - yeah, ok, not many supporters out but it was in the middle of nowhere and freezing cold so not a surprise really!Ran 17mins off my PB from last Spring too (not all the course tho, ran over 1,000 miles since then)Definitely be back next year:)
