Two people run on a paved path next to a field of blooming daffodils. Both are wearing athletic gear; one in a red shirt and the other in a dark shirt. Trees with lush green foliage are in the background beneath a partly cloudy sky. Three men are running through a forested trail wearing hydration packs and race bibs. The man on the left is in a blue shirt, the two men on the right are in red shirts. They appear to be participating in an event. The word "FOX" and a logo are visible on the right.

Great event. Lovely route, stunning bluebells, very lucky with the weather and ground underfoot as nice and dry. Really well marked route, and good range of snacks at the stops, which were about right. The 50km stop could have been a little earlier as that was a very long leg.
