Another great Maverick event. From arrival and parking, Number collection and pre-race info was great. As for the race, with all the rain leading up to the day, it was truly a good old cross country run. I really enjoyed the 6k route. May well be back for a longer route.

Great run, great event. What stands out with the events run by Maverick was the people at the village and every single marshal or those at the aid stations. Look forward to the next event.

On course nutrition was 10/10 - loved the course too. Can you help the 5 days of rain beforehand? If not, nothing to improve!

This was my 1st off road race experience and it was top class really giving me the bug to do more. Great event village. Perfect corse marking.

Loved every moment of this event! The atmosphere was great! A comeback to Maverick after a long gap following major injury. It was brilliant, I will be back

I’m not sure how they managed to get a field of a few hundred runners who queued for a style when four people went through the first puddle. Sublimely ridiculous. Apart from that great day out.
