In short: Well organised, great t-shirt this year, well worth the money, Not a PB course
In full: 2nd time i've done this race (1st time last year), was really looking forward to it and was not disappointed. It's a well organised event, well marshalled and really worth having a go at. Great t-shirt this year. It's quite challenging with two climbs, though the last two miles are nice and flat, finished about a minute quicker than last year. I will definately be doing this again next year.

In short: Very enjoyable, enough to make me come back again.
In full: The marshalls were encouraging, the start and finish were smooth and cheerful. One small improvement could be to move the water table to the side of the queue for the shirts. All in all a good event that ran well. Thanks to all at the Kirkstall club.
