Amazing race. First 10km at Bewl Water - loved every minute of it, come on down and do it. I did the 10K, it was hot and I came second. Simon, 2023

Another great event organised by Hermes Running! It was incredibly hot yesterday but there was plenty of water and the people at the aid stations looked after us well. Thanks David and all your crew for another enjoyable event. A special note to the marshal at the turnaround point. He was very encouraging and motivational! Robert, 2023

Perfect organisation, had all the info needed in plenty of time. Course is stunning and really varied, well marked and easy to follow as well as offering gpx routes if you like to follow your watch navigation. Ruth H, 2023

Super well organised and great route though challenging on hills! Excellent super helpful supportive staff and motivational briefing. Verity R
