Just checked out the course. It is a little soggy after this week's rain. I would recommend trail shoes or studs for next weekend

The course is pretty hilly, but we have had all standards and ages of runners run the race (15 - 80 years old). Finish times range from 30 mins to 75 mins.................plus the homemade cakes make running up the hill all the more worthwhile! Online entries are still open. More info on Facebook: www.facebook.com/hurstbourne5

There are lots of great running routes around Hurstbourne Tarrant. Come and find me on race day and I'll try to point a few out (I'll be the grey haired one looking stressed)

I can't deny that the course is a little "undulating", but if the weather stays this way, there should be no mud, as the course is drying out very quickly.

I will be ordering T-shirts this week so please get your entries in ASAP, so that I have an idea on numbers.

P.S. The last mile is all down hill

The home made cakes tipped the balance, eh?

The course has dried out a lot over the past week, so I would say studs or trail shoes will both be fine
