I'm thinking of doing a 24hour solo next year. There are loads out there and from reports most seem good. Which one would you recommend for a first timer? I'd prefer the minimumum amount of travelling so closer to Newcastle the better.

Which ones have the best course, best atmosphere, best weather etc.

Thanks,

Possibly a bit far away, but Relentless 24 is a fantastic event. This year's race was blessed with perfect weather into the bargain.

Have a look at the [url= http://nofussevents.co.uk/event/Relentless-24/1047/ ]video[/url] on the No Fuss website.

Relentless and Strathpuffer are the best I've done, and probably closer than the flat, dull courses in the Midlands used by SITS. I'll never do a Provelo event again- the courses are crap.

Best 24hr event I've done was the UK24 solo champs at Newcastleton. Close to the north eat too.
