In short: Brilliant!
In full: Thank you very much, third year running and a 56 min PB. Very happy with that, but my legs are moaning a bit today!

Great views across Wiltshire, reminds me why I do these runs!

Will be back next year!

Thanks

In short: Brilliant as usual!
In full: No start line, no pens, no crowds, no pushing, no queuing for loos. Just a bloke at the start who takes your name and number and you are off. A very low key and relaxed run through the countryside and villages surrounding Bath. Some nice hills and some particularly nice steps at the end. Brilliant, thanks.

In short: Great thanks!
In full: A testing undulating T shaped course through the New Forest on well surfaced stony tracks - road shoes were a good choice for extra padding! Testing with a couple of hills at the begining of each lap. T shaped so you run out to the a six mile loop which you do three times. Nice set up as you can see the leaders and how many people are in front of you. There is a 14 mile option which starts an hour after the full marathon so you get an injection of pace around the 8 mile mark. Good race, well organised, High 5 energy drinks at the aid station.

In short: Brilliant 10.5 mile (ish) run!
In full: A couple of sharp short inclines - one so much that you need a rope. But also some great decents at speed! Do not be afraid - with a bit of training you will be okay!

In short: Brilliant
In full: Hilly, but with some real fast bits inbetween to help keep you going!

Thanks to all involved, standing in the cold could not have been fun, but running it was!!

Not your poncy "tough wimp" event, but a proper multi terrain run with hills thrown in! Really good fun.

In full: Great, thanks for a good day and a nice medal. Only suggestion would be another water point around 6-7 miles.

Thanks

In full: Thank you for a really well organised run! Roads closed the whole way around! What a bonus! Killer hills, lovely heat! Great!

PS do not run with a stinking cold as it does not help!
