Enjoyable. Excellent route with a varied challenge across each terrain. A water station would have benefited me and toilets open at registration would help, but a fantastic morning and I’d definitely attend again. Craig E

I’ll be back. One day the steps won’t beat me. Jacqueline C

Tough trails. Fun times!! Really good and very challenging course. Pre race experience could be improved with toilets open earlier and a prompt start time, but overall a thoroughly enjoyable race I would do again. Chris D

Great route, well marked, even I didn’t get lost for a change. Christine C

Really enjoyable run around Loggerheads. Patrick H

Great trail event with a good level of difficulty. Really enjoyed it and would do again. A drink station and water at the finish would improve things. Dafydd J

Brilliant. Very well organised, I’ll be back! Amy W

Tough but terrific. A real challenge with a tough start, technical sections and a fast finish. Always a welcoming event we return to each year. Ben H

Great experience! Organisation was smooth, registration simple and marshals friendly. The course was well marked and a great introduction to trail running, even with the tough staircase. Lauren J

Great event, challenging but plenty of fun! James B

It was very enjoyable. Steven E

Will be back next year. When will results be out. Jenson J

Really enjoyed this trail and it was very challenging. Only downside was toilet facilities not being open before the run. Stephen R

Nice step up from parkrun! My first trail run and a great challenge. Would definitely do again. Michael S

Challenging, fun trail run. Water or an energy bar at the finish would be a welcome addition. Lisa H

Good varied challenge. A tough trail run and a great stepping stone into fell racing. Disappointing to see errors in the results which affected finishing positions. Matthew W

Great trail race. A varied, scenic route with a good mix of challenge and recovery sections. Extremely well marked and marshalled. Sarah O

Stairway to hell. Varied terrain and undulation with the staircase adding a tough test. Overall a good event in a scenic location. Chris R

Friendly and fun with a tough climb early on and some technical descents. Jo M

Excellent. Second year doing this great route. Terence H

Sleep well

A good night's sleep is an essential foundation for a healthy lifestyle, effective training and weight control.

Train slow

Low-intensity training is easier for you, reduces the risk of injury and helps builds an efficient aerobic system.

Eat natural

Cut out sugar & junk food, reduce carbs, eat natural foods and train your body to burn fat for fuel.

Get outdoors

Fresh air, natural light and reconnecting with nature all help to improve mental and physical wellbeing.
