Organised by HumanRace Events, this
is one of a series of off-road winter events held In the South. This one
on army training land near Aldershot. They do a 10k and 15k trail run as
well. Superb area for running and mountain biking and well organised and
marshalled. My biggest problem was having done a reasonable first run, I
was faced with hoards of good bikers coming past me (on both sides) on the
narrow trails. There were a few very steep sandy descents where I was
very cautious and probably got in the way! I won my age category but it
was hollow victory as there were only 3 of us and one of those was a DNF.
I was expecting more mud, water and steep hills but it was still a
demanding course - recommended!
