In short: Magnificent!
In full: I'm thrilled to have finished this very tough race in wet and cold conditions. It is a brilliant event, very well organised. There is a real variety in scenery: pretty villages, woods, a beautiful country park and an ugly industrial estate. The muddy fields and flooded paths were very challenging, particularly after dark, but that is the fun and the challenge. Thanks to the organisers for a remarkable race and a truly memorable experience.
