In short: A truly special event.
In full: Did this last year and had to do it again. This is seriously tough but everything from the organization,marshals,supporters, the people who make the free cakes/sandwiches/tea/soup etc were absolutely fantastic. You also get a wonderful medal and an awesome tech-t-shirt, i'm still buzzing now and can't wait for next years discovery.

In short: Pefect for a PB!!!
In full: Even though last year's was very cold, wet and the baggage claim a complete disaster i had to make the long trip up from Plymouth to do it again. The organisation and support from everyone was amazing, and got me a 12 minute PB. I'm still buzzing now, thanks Manchester.

In short: Top notch organisation
In full: Been looking forward to this one for a long time and was hoping for a sub 1hr 30 so imagine my horror when i pulled my hamstring at mile 4 and had to run through the pain barrier to finish in 1 hr 35. But other than that everything was great from the easy parking, the support,the marshals and the helpers in the baggage area. I'll be back.

In short: Cracking day out!!!
In full: First time for Bristol for me and won't be the last!! Other than the short and sharp hill near the end the race is pretty flat which resulted in me getting a PB and just short of a sub 1hr 30!! Organisation was top class but the mile markers could be clearer next time,i only spotted 2 or 3. Great T-shirt and medal as well.

In short: A well organised event but a tough run amongst fantastic scenery.
In full: A first time ultra runner here who has just got the feelings back into my legs. But what a first class event from the organizers, to the wonderful marshals, fellow runners and finally the supporters. I was made to feel so welcome by everyone that i will be back next year and i can't wait.
