Reviews
More of a mud fest than a 10K. I know this was a Christmas event so therefore the condition of the track was going to be muddy. I will run here again if an event is held in the spring / summer / autumn, when there is far less chance of running through mud, mud, mud!! The paths are narrow so overtaking is restricted.
