In short: Ran it since the 80s a classic race
In full: Ran this course many times and the race since the 80s. Always well organised, quick results, decent prize list and not rip off entry fee.
Great support, great marshal's, top grass roots race. Easy access, showers etc.

In short: Wold gold
In full: A great race. The 'half-up', 'half-down' combo worked well for me, though it might be nice to run it the other way around to get the encouagement of the Skidby locals in the last mile, and not have 'that hill' to worry about! Top race, great marshalling, I hope I'll be back.

In short: all good - as usual
In full: We were set off speedily and as usual there was good support in the villages and at various cross roads. Supportive marshals and loud encouragement on the final hill.
I allowed my self to be overtaken in the funnel which screwd up my position/time but the this was quickly sorted out for me.
Good quality long sleeved technical shirt.
Well done (again) City of Hull

In short: Brilliant race
In full: Travelled down from the borders for this run. I read initially it was quite hilly??? its fkat compared to where i run, A definite possibility of a new pb ( i took 2 minutes off my last 10 miler) very well organised and a fantastic atmosphere with marshals well spread out applauding and cheering runners on. Well done hull i,ll see you next year

In short: Delightful race for all abilities and very welcoming
In full: I ran this for the first time and was bit aprehensive because I am not that fast even without the hills (normally 10 minute-ish miles) but it was great. Just the right amount of challenge and largely in the first five miles. Friendly competitors and marshalls (normal for E. Yorks of course!) and excellent organisation including plenty of marshalls well-drilled in controlling road traffic. Good value especially as there is a good quality long sleeved running top at the end rather than a cheap t-shirt. A really uplifting day.

In short: challenging hills made this a fun, exciting race
In full: This is the second time i've ran the ferriby 10, the main reason being is that I love the challenge of the first 5 miles of uphill. I plan to do it again next year and the year after etc in a hope to coninue the pattern of beating my previous years time.
