this first started at 18:00 on a Sunday night many months ago with the curser hovering over the registration icon, this race sells out every year at the drop of a hat, fair to say I was eager to experience the run

i was not disappointed! Superbly organised, no need to worry, everything flowed through at registration, plenty of loos, staff, space, pen time were supervised well.

the stages, which were 11, a mixture but in the main, trail, the beautiful route took you through some lovely uphill valleys, down steep slopes, the walks between the stages were the recovery, well sign posted, marshalling was spot on, very encouraging in their support.

the entry price was a bargain, the medal was fab, the plentiful water, banana and jelly babies were a  nice addition to the hot day, overall the day was wonderful, problem free, the finish area was a great mix of runners and family, a real festival atmosphere.

get hovering when the registration opens people, you will not be disappointed
