The DDD is a proper trail run, muddy, step descents, steep climbs, log jumps, twistie & turnie, every thing you could wish for....and very dark as well. Brilliant atmosphere, great comraderie and the best bit of advice i would give is bring a change of clothes with you.

Definitely need good trail or fell shoes due to the mud. Plus a good headtorch. A pleasantly low key, not too commercial race.
