In short: A race of two halves (Approx. 3 miles road + 3 miles over the country)
In full: Changes in course from last year made the off road section much harder. Overnight rain and a MTBs chewed up the trails into thick mud in places plus some unforgiving hills made this a particularly challenging 10k.

Thoroughly recommended as an introduction to off road racing

It was like two separate races, I needed a transition at 3 miles to change my shoes :>}
