I thought this was a pretty good race for me despite being 50s or so behind Chris. Ran the whole of both of the climbs and was gaining places on the second - didn't lose anything on the descent but didn't gain anything either; in fact think Chris pulled away here, I was only maybe 20s behind at the top.

Very fast road-based start and along tracks and fields before the nice moorland uphill started; then down and undulating through forest (tracks, but muddyish rather than gravel), then a steep climb up forest steps and heather across the moor to the summit. Moorland and fields most of the way down before some road to finish. Was going to go with trails but Facebook recommended fells and it was probably the right choice given recent rain.

Good route although so fast, not much time to enjoy it as concentrating whole way around! My descending is pretty poor now, ever since 'the incident'. Clearly psychological harm has occurred.
