Eleanor Wood : Thank you for such a great event as usual. I love the Hippo ,so much variety and challenge. All marshals and back room staff excellent as ever. Please send my thanks to all.xxx

Alexa Baker : Please pass on a big well done to all involved with organising the event, it was my first Hippo and won't be the last. I loved the challenges, views, friendly marshals, weather (!), it was a cracker!

Louise Harrison : My first Hippo: It was perfect weather for me - sunny but a cold air and the water obstacles cooled me down too! Lots of tough hills, mud and scary down hills due to loose stones but a fabulous run. Glad I had my trail shoes on. I couldn’t stop smiling all the way round, would definitely recommend and can’t wait until next year! Thank you to all the organisers, Marshall’s and volunteers, without you these races couldn’t happen.
