Hilly, woody, wet and muddy = Perfect. The key word to summarise this run is "variety." Alice Holt Forest has excellent facilities (parking, cafe, toilets, play areas for children, etc.) and mixed terrain (flats and hills, gravel paths and dirt tracks, wide open areas and narrow sections between trees), so there is something here for everyone.
While rain cannot be guaranteed (more's the pity, as running in the mud always feels more hard core!), the trees offer protection from strong winds and shade on sunny days.
The Forest Run events are clearly marked, well-marshalled and - best of all - have a neat wooden finishers medal to emphasise the importance of sustainability.
A great run.
