Thoroughly enjoyed it, definitely reccomend long sleeves and long bottoms!!Particularly if you have any sense of competitiveness, they will be needed.Marshalls allowed us to let people all the way through before we raced, to prevent injury to those not wanting to get caught up in our races.

The queuing is annoying, it would be great to tweak this to reduce the bottle necks.

Very expensive for what it was. Over £100 for a family of three to go on what was essentially a dozen bouncy castles in a field. Lots of hidden extras too: want to park your car? Another fiver. Want to leave your car keys somewhere safe? Another 3 quid. At a fairer price I'd go again. Registration staff weren't the friendliest or remotely helpful.

Fantastic morning, my children especially enjoyed themselves and the event was well spaced out with no queueing at obstacles.

Way too much queueing for the obstacles. Off road grass sections were way too uneven I’d be surprised if someone didn’t break their ankle.
