In short: Well organised-though last turn needs to be clearer !
In full: Well organised,plenty drinks, 2 x very steep hills that are negotiated twice!Short stretch of busy road that was ok.The last turn into the clay pits needs to be more clearly marked - lot of runners missed it/off course here.

In short: Late start - no water at 18 miles
In full: After 25 min walk to start, and it was freezing,we were then kept waiting a further 10 minutes or so.....WHY WHY WHY ?
With no entries on the day - just WHY did mile 18 have no water ?
Expensive for a x-country parkland run,very disapponting medal,wrong size t/shirt.
The route was undulating and quite rough underfoot in a few places.

In short: Well organised no frills trail Ultra in ths Sussex Downs
In full: Excellent event,great weather and the views help,the only surprise is that more runners do not enter - one measure of a good event is the number of runners that come back to it each year - many thanks for another great day out on the downs
