I was very nervous when i turned up . But once the run got going i had a good time and it didn't feel out of my league although i was at the back of the group. I had plenty of people coming & keeping me company. Would definately do it again.

From where I live it was almost a 100 mile round trip but well worth the effort.Some stunning views over the South Downs and surrounding countryside as well as running through some sleepy little villages.Very undulating terrain which I was looking for by way of final preparations for the Snowdonia trail marathon in a few weeks.Plenty of stops for re-grooping and to catch one’s breath.Well done Grass Roots , looking forward to the next one.
