Brilliant trail running. The course through the Irchester Country Park is beautiful and scenic, plus the hills and mud make it a tough challenge. Marshalls were great encouraging the runners the whole way round. Thoroughly recommended for anyone who enjoys running off road.

Fantastically muddy. Well organised event, marshals were all Encouraging. The mud wall was good hard fun 👍 Nice bit of bling, porridge and flapjack at the end.
Thanks Georgina hope to see you again next year
