Awesome event.. Fantastic route, well marked and an excellent challenge. Easy registration, great atmosphere and perfect weather too. Will potentially be back next year.

Excellent race, well organised with marshalls and marked route.
Hard, hilly course with lots of interesting sections, my only regret was that I wasn't a bit fitter to do it justice.

This event was excellent from start (the night before) to finish. Alex’s comms before were really good. I stayed overnight in a shared bunk house, basic but totally suitable. The trail half was tough but stunning. Being able to shower after (because I'd stayed overnight) was a really treat. All event crew and fellow runners were super friendly. The food provision. (before/during/after) was great. Alex nailed this event. I’d happily do it again. I'd happily do any Prosper Event - they did more, went further and aimed higher than other event organisers.

Great race - very well organised, clear signage, regular Marshall points, and well stocked feed stations. Friendly atmosphere at race hq. We used the overnight bunk house accommodation basic as expected but comfortable. Def going to look at future events organised by Prosper.
