Holmfirth 15 by Mojo Jojo

In short: Really enjoyed this one, but be prepared to run on pavements most of the way due to very busy roads. Also, for anyone not from hilly parts, take flat/undulating to mean at least 4 individual miles of steady uphill running!
In full: Make sure that you jump up and down in front of the person taking numbers at the end - shout, scream, but make sure they get your number. I ran one of my best races to date and should have got the first prize in my age group - but they missed taking my number and so wouldn't give me my prize - not bothered about the vouchers, but it was embarrassing in front of my 8 year old daughter when she was expecting to hear mummy's name at the prize-giving. Only 2nd prize I've ever won as well!

In short: fail to prepare, prepare to fail!
In full: This is a brilliant event. Definitiyl the hardest marathon around, as you start to struggle at 18m it gives you a big kick up the backside and asks that you find even more from your already jelly-like body. Il be back next year for sure

In short: Excellent 10K-challenging but with real PB potential
In full: Weather was perfect this year,which made it one of the best 10k's around.Hilly enough to be challenging,but overall very quick with definite PB potential.There seemed to be a number of runners turned away before the start this year,so best to enter in advance.

In short: Watch out for the sheep!!
In full: This was my first ever race and I found the 6k uphill at the start hard!! Some of the distance markers seemed to have been moved!! The sheep that came running across the track at around 1k were a bit of a shock!! Would definitely run it again but will get some hill training in before hand!!
