Such a fun race!

Really great race with lots of different types of obstacles through the race. Running route was so well signposted even I could find my way around and I have no sense of direction.

Had plenty of marshalls who were really lovely and supportive. The slip and slide at the end of the race was just brilliant, I laughed so hard at the end of it I could hardly breathe:) I will be back next year for sure.

Well organised, good quality medal, plenty of parking close to the start line. Suitable for all abilities.
Great to know you enjoyed it Eleri, see you next year and why not bring your friends.
Also look out for our next event, The Multi Terrain Adventure Races at Pembrey, Sunday 13th October. 5K, 10K & 10 miles and there are separate Canicross races too. www.redwarrior.co.uk

Superb day. Absolutely fantastic day, it blew me away when I found out it was their first year of setting the event up! I take my hat off to all the staff and volunteers. They made it fun with creative obstacles and motivated us all the way through! Maybe just have a timer at the end if the race so the runners know their time right at the end, but apart from that it was fantastic!
Many Thanks Brioney, we thoroughly enjoyed putting on the event, even the hard graft, your point about the timer is a good point, our thinking was that, as it was a predicted handicap event we didn't want the runners to see the clock from distance to avoid any cheating, but we will definitely consider it for next year and also in future events. So pleased you enjoyed it, it makes all the effort worthwhile.
