Another local event for me (I walk or jog less than a mile to the start line), pick up number on the day and then enjoy 5 miles along the trails. Great route with the dreaded HILL appearing somewhere along the way. Part of a four race series and a race I’ll continue to enter for a long time to come. Marshall’s were amazing, all had super soakers as weather was hot on race day

Running this race during the middle of a 3week heatwave in 29C heat was tough- they had super soakers on route to cool you down which was great.

Having a water station to fill own cup would have been better but understand logistics of doing this in middle of old colliery site would be tough.

Email received couple of says before reminding participants to ensure they stayed hydrated and extra water provided at finish line.

Course route was nice and about half was shaded through trees. 

Live this little local race and good value for money.
