In short: A nice scenic 2 lap route with plenty of undulations. Marshalls gave lots of encouragement.

In short: Reasonably flat, rural race. Marshalling & organisation was excellent. Atmosphere wasn't the best but it was a cold, wet wintery day. Goody bag was ok but it would have been nice to distinguish which event you completed instead of Bramley 10/20.

In short: A real challenge with a bit of everything.
In full: Probably tougher than I thought it would be & although I was expecting some mud & water, I didn't expect what was to come in 'The Wetlands'. The start was a bit cramped for my liking. You need full concentration throughout the race or you can easily end up on your backside. Everytime you ran through one of numerous large puddles you would have no idea how deep it was going to be. Overall, I really enjoyed the race & would actually prefered it to be a bit longer. Price is a little high. Looking forward to next year's race & hoping it will be even tougher.

In short: Starts with a climb for the first mile and has a very steep hill at around the 8 mile mark. Lots of downhill stretches as well including the last mile. Did get a PB during this race which I was quite surprised about.
