Set in the Southdowns National Park amid a beautiful historic estate, Temple Valley Brutal 10k was a sell out. Unusually, this event had a Canicross race, (that’s dog and handler peeps!) and our experienced Brutal runner Jodie Wilmott took her year old Miniature Schnauzer Schnu along with Glossopdale Harrier and East Cowes girl Claire Campbell and her dog Callie.
The course was hugely challenging with farmland, maize fields, vast muddy bogs and motocross jumps. “It’s the hardest brutal I’ve done” said Jodie. And if she says it was tough… then it was definitely tough. Super Schnu excelled in his race debut to bring his owner home in 1.28.15. 14th overall and 5th female.
