In short: Tough course but a lovely run
In full: Great organisation and friendly staff and marshals. Thank you to all the helpers for standing around in the freezing conditions. Bag drop and finish line were great. Mice medal and t-shirt too.

Managed my PB on this race so love it even more!

Up yours to some of the impatient rude motorists!

Can't wait for next year but hope its a bit warmer.

In short: More up than down!
In full: Mostly ok views. Was a hot day. Lots of hills and one killer hill at 10 miles. Lack of water station before this hill.

Overall an ok race but quite pricy considering there was no goody bag.

In short: Wicked
In full: Great organisation all round, especially the pre-event emails. The course was very tough with changes in scenery and terrain every few minutes. Hills towards the end were more than challenging but managed not to stop.

A great atmosphere and friendly marshalls and drink stations. The drink stations were great, offering isotonic drinks and jelly babies. Nice to sink a quick beer at then end too!

Looking forward to next year to try and beat my time.

In short: Fantastic day out with a nice run thrown in.
In full: Would recommend this to anyone. Will deffo return next year with bigger teams. So well organised with a superb medal and goody bag. To top it off a free massage before or after the race. Make sure you bring your family if the weather is fine.

In short: A good course with some nice views and friendly marshalls
In full: Despite advertising ample parking there was not enough so had to drive around looking for somewhere to park on the road making it a rush to collect chip and race number in a hall full of people milling around. Had to run to the start but got going on time.

The Finish was disappointing with a disorganised unmanned water station
