Absolutely cracking event, really nice to cross with those starting from the other end. Flat course. Was a bit warm but see they've moved the event forward a couple of weeks for 2024 so that's kinda cool. Small team and small numbers which I like. Fantastic value, really impressed they can run it at the cost.

Well done for a great event! Out and back is a pretty route on old railway line, fun tunnels, nice to do in a group, well organised and nice support and feed stations along the way. Will be back in 2024!

Lovely out-and-back route: a disused railway line with countryside views, two tunnels to run through, and the possibility of seeing a steam train in action. The volunteers and participants were all lovely. No crowds of supporters, but local runners, dog-walkers and cyclists on the trail were friendly and encouraging. A fairly flat and easily navigable 28 miles: an Ideal first ultra.

A great intro for those runners, like myself, who would like to push a little bit past a marathon into the 'ultra- ranks.

Great work by the team to get the event put on despite all the challenges. Very friendly too.

Brilliant value for money compared to every other even I have done, £7.50 for the t-shirt.

Nice logo design too.

From a volunteer perspective the race was very well organised and they accommodated for the extra needs of covid requirements.
