Alan Smith (Deeside) goes back down the short-cut/path rather than the grassy bank - not sure how it works time wise, but on my last two years experience I think it would take less out of the legs and so leave more for the rest of the race. Mind you there have been a hundred runners down the grass by the time I get there so it is always a mess!
