In short: More cakes please!
In full: Good rural undulating run,well marshalled and nice and friendly.
My only gripe was that there was no food left by the time I finished(just over 2 hours so not that slow) showered and changed.Save me a cake next year please!!

In short: Very well organised potentially fast race
In full: The heat put paid to any thoughts I had of a PB but it is a fast course so I'll be back in November to try again!
Overall organisation excellent.Good idea to communicate by emails and save on problems with the post.Collecting race number on the day was n't a problem alle very efficient.

In short: an interesting new type of event
In full: An excellent morning out in spite of the heavy rain making it difficult to mark your grid.This is a nice area to run in with a couple of good hills to give a bit of an extra challenge.The puzzle difficulty was about right and for a first event well organised a lot of preparation had obviously gone into the puzzles.
Shame about the low turnout its well worth giving this type of event a try for a change so I hope you organise another one Andy.
PB rating is irrelavant for this event as its completely different.

In short: Fast course new PB so very happy
In full: I thought the start was well organised even though I did n't get into my pen as early as I'd like as the queues for the toilets were huge.Lots of men peeing under the rugby stand when all the toilets were found to be locked YUK.
Nice goody bag but took ages to get my bag back I was freezing would have helped if there had been a foil in the goody bag.
I'll be back next year as long as the entry numbers have n't been increased again.
Better than last years Bristol HM

In short: Loads of mud,rivers and hills fit for a mountain goat!
In full: Well organised a huge thank you to the marshalls especially those on top of the hills who must have been freezing in that cold wind.

In short: Very Muddy,very Hilly ,Very HARD
In full: The organisers were n't kidding when they described this as tough.
Only gripe is a couple of marshalls who assumed I knew which way to go at the junctions.Everyone very friendly.Excellent cake table at the end.Results available very quickly.

In full: The last mile on the beach was tough as you can see the finish all the way and it took a long time to get closer!Then you have to run past it and double back!Great race though .An ideal first 10k.
