In short: Fantastic ultra
In full: Puts all other comments about volunteers into perspective when you have checkpoints manned, and freindly by teams from local running clubs, mostly overnight and in some very exposed loactions - great for beginners a s long as you've done a marathon before. MANY THANKS TO ALL INVOLVED

In short: Well run and enjoyable
In full: A bit too undulating for many pbs but the last 5k is mostly down hill, so as long as you've held it together 'till halfway, its easier to keep the form going through the last few k

In short: Great scenary, good weather, well organised / marshalled
In full: HM was a real antedote to the big town / city races. Hills were certainly challenging, but removed any notion of pbs or even pacing - so could just concentrate on more important matters
