The course just loses a star for the slightly lacking way finding for the short course. I also expected a little more lighting around the course. The fire pits were great as were the free samples.

A really well run and interesting event. The course was challenging in places, with steep climbs and technical descents in places. This gave it a wonderful adventure feel, especially in the dark. A great place to come and challenge yourself at the end of the year.

I almost missed the first marker for the 7km run, many did. I think this would have to be more clearly marked.

Well organised and good atmosphere, I think it being at night contributes to that! Course was good, hills, woods, dark, was exciting. Course was reasonably well marked although at times doubted myself whether I’d taken a wrong turn in the dark!
