In short: Hard, Tough, Steep, but Brilliant
In full: I done this race 3 years ago and it was great then and is just as good this time round. I like the new date in the calendar and the reason for the 3 year gap was because it clashed with so many other races when it was held in September, so well done to the organisers for moving it to October.

Nice long sleeve sweatshirt at the finish and if anyone wants to see their finishing times then go to the following web address,

Hope to do it again next year

In short: Well organised, the hills get worse each year, fun race
In full: Not a race for a PB unless your previous race was on the North Wall of the Eiger. A fun race for a SUnday mroning but I preferred it in its original timing of end of August/beginning of September as an introduction to the new season.

In short: It's run through Harrow on the hill - if you like a race to keep you focused try it.

In short: Fantastic
In full: This race took you from the playing fields of Harrow School up the hill to Harrow School itself. It was a glorious day and a fabulous race. Well organised, friendly marshalls and a friendly atmosphere. Well done.

A great day.
