"Superb day! I am a complete novice at this trail running lark, but was so inspired I came home and entered the next three races! As a beginner, I really appreciated being able to enter the Challenge race and know I could go at my own slow steady pace and walk up the steep bits. It made the race very accessible for beginners, and was so much fun. Thanks to the organisers for a great day." Andree Rose
