A narrow start on a rocky path under the Wrekin, then up to the top and down the other side, before a stiff walking climb back to the summit, steeply down to the bottom again before climbing up to the summit for the third time and a tricky, rocky descent to the nearly 2 mile trek along the undulating track we started on.Under the advertised 8 miles, but 2,400ft of climb. Guy finished 55th, in 1.19.40, Gary was 68th (1.22.26), Nicky 90th (1.26.03) and Tom 123rd (1.35.21). Steve Cale won in 56.28, and there were 160 runners.
