Really good event to do, my first time doing it, does what it says with tough climbs and technical parts although the hardest part for me was trying to avoid all the dogs & families. It was well organised & well marshalled, the visitor centre was a real bonus especially after the run to get a drink and something to eat.

Fantastic trail race and really well organised. Great energy down at the start line and a really challenging course. The only niggles were, parking was encouraged to be a 15 minute walk away to keep the main carpark available for day trippers. The medals, Yes I understand why they are wooden but they do feel pretty cheap and it would have been nice to have seperate 10k or half marathon ones rather than a combined one. From what I understand, the winners of the Canicross races didn't receive a winners medal/trophy? If this is the case then I believe this needs addressing. Non of the above took away from my enjoyment of the event and I would definitely sign up again!
