Lovely route, amazing scenery, everyone was friendly. Finish line could be in a better place, and maybe issue a clearer warning about running through very uneven cow fields. Sure the event will only get better as the years go on.
Stunning. A lovely farming community organised event. Loved the ethos; take nothing away, leave nothing behind, and the welcome from the people involved. Great to have 3 distances, and a small entry so made it very friendly. However, not for the faint hearted, the course is over farmland with some difficult terrain so don't expect a PB here. Beautiful surroundings, wonderful people and dogs welcome. Will certainly consider doing this again. Diane
In a breathtakingly picturesque setting, this race boasts a delightful ambiance that captures the hearts of all participants. The course presents an exhilarating challenge, expertly designed and meticulously marked to ensure a smooth experience. Adding a touch of eco-consciousness, the biodegradable medals embedded with wildflower seeds are a beautiful and innovative memento. This race comes highly recommended for anyone seeking an unforgettable, environmentally responsible sporting event.
