But it turns out there was no need – I had an absolute ball, which is probably a spoiler but I don’t care. Trail Escape race report So here is my race report in full, from the shuttle bus on the way there, to the marshalls, to the toilets, to the medals. I am full of the joy of running a race with walkers and runners, with no pressure, where the sun was shining and every runner was getting cheered at the end.
