In short: Bit of a brute, but really enjoyed it!
In full: Challenging run through some glorious scenery, not that I really had chance to enjoy the views! Thank you organisers and marshalls you put on such a good, enjoyable, well organised (quite painful) day. Coffin Trail half way marker was so cruel (but unfortunately true!). Thanks guys!

See you again next year hopefully! :)

In short: Fast and friendly
In full: Loved this race. Well organised and marshalled. Very basic race, attracts some very fast runners, but there is a good mix of abilities further down the field and a very welcoming feel. Smashed last years time, still feeling smug, see you all again next year! :)

In full: Loved this race when it was last run in 2009, so very pleased it was back again this year. Loved the new course with road section removed. Lovely welcoming atmosphere, and plenty to do at the start/finish area and the marshalls around the course were brilliant. Thank you National Trust for bringing this race back better than ever.

In short: Challenging, but definitely one of my favourites.
In full: Some decent hills to climb, last couple of miles flatish. Multi terrain. Start was well organised, marshals were brilliant throughout the course, and post race buffet was delicious. Stunning views on the off road parts, and through the woods it was just carpeted in bluebells - what an amazing sight. Really enjoyed it and knocked 7 mins off last years time!! See you again next year guys!!:)
