Anyone done any of this series? Any good? Also, what's the running surface like? Is it suitable for road shoes, or would I need trail shoes? Any advice welcome. Thanks in advance |

I did the August run last year and loved it, it's a really varied and interesting course (but not a fast one!). I think I wore trail shoes, but a lot of people didn't. There are a few bits that go through fields (one icnludes a hill, with cows) so if it's muddy trail might be preferable, but road shoes would still be fine I think as the majority of the paths are hard. I've missed both of the series so far this year, and am currently fighting an injury before GNR so looks like I'll miss the 3rd one too which I'm really disappointed about. Last year you could get a muffin and a brew at the end for £1 which won it for me. |
