In short: A Yorkshire gem!
In full: First ran this in 1989 and it was highly demanding then - never broke 100 minutes :( Low key, well organised, varied gradient & interesting terrain - but I can't ever recall rain like it! I plan to return for my 10th next year. Thank you, all at Bp Wilton :)

In short: Full in 3 days - says it all, really :)
In full: This HM never fails to deliver: brilliant organisation, traffic free, inspirational marshalling and facilities to rival the biggest HMs - on site car parking, refreshments, changing, showers, chip timing, results up on the day - yes, really! - photos, goody bag with chocolate and a super sweatshirt. Ran 1:29 on this course, my almost PB, so it's a special event every time. Gotta love that Monkey!!

In short: Something for every type of runner here - tough but fair.
In full: Did what it said on the can - wide variety of challenging surfaces, ups and downs to make you grimace and grin, and "nothing left to chance" in the organisation. Not a race I'd recommend to the runner new to trails but that's not really a criticism. 305 finishers, superb facilities, results & photos posted by teatime - I rest my case.
