You signed up for a winter trail run in the dark and got 10km (ish) of mud, snow and ice under a brilliantly clear star filled sky. The course was well marked with reflective flags which glowed in your touch light and the marshalls friendly and helpful. What is there not to like. Not many facilities on Morth Hill but free parking and a free warm drink and mince pie at the end. Very much enjoyed my Selworthy Stargazer Experience.

Excellent race to end the year on. A beautifully clear, starry night run on North Hill, Minehead. Another great running event in the Dark Skies series. Well marshalled and a great atmosphere.

Dan & his tribe team are fab. Despite being a tad cold there was a fabulous christmas atmosphere, everyone was so happy and friendly. The marshals on course were great and so encouraging. Big shout out to them all. Thank you for another great event. A very merry Christmas to you ...
