Two runners in athletic gear race towards the finish line at an outdoor event. The path is muddy and lined with cheering spectators behind barrier banners that read "TRAILS." A large inflatable arch, marking the finish line, stands in the background under a cloudy sky.

My first ever trail race and it was amazing! Would definitely recommend to anyone looking to get into trail racing as it has a bit of everything on the course and it was very well organised! Booked the half marathon for the November event already! :)

Great event. Ran perfectly to schedule, the course was challenging and fun but didn't quite hit the half-marathon distance so half a star off my review.
