Did the race in 2021
Very different event running around the grounds of the castle at night. Organisation great except finish was confusing. (Entered from wrong end). Would do the run again

Did the race in 2021
This is definitely a challenging course (not beginner friendly) and very dark in some places, but well signposted and with fantastic marshals. Another brilliant event by Sporting Events and one I'll definitely do again.
