In short: Well Organised and Friendly race
In full: This was my first time at this race and really enjoyed it. It was probably the toughest race I have ever done as I don't usually run on hills, living the other side of the A1 to where this race was!
Shuttle buses were run very frequently, Marshalls were plentiful and friendly.
Course was very hard and the hills were more hilly 2nd time round.
Will be back to better my time

In short: Marshalls were great, very encouraging which helped along those long windy stretches. Thank goodness it was a sunny day and no rain otherwise would be like 2 hours of hell!
In full: Made a good PB so very pleased with the Folksworth 15. 2 laps with 3 jolly hills, but a lovely flat run back to the finish and a nice cake. Why did the wind seem to be in our faces for 75% of the run??! :-)

In short: Marshalls very friendly and helpful, the team were lovely. Well done girls for having my bag ready for me before I turned the corner. Exceptional service and I shared this with you. A fabulous run. Do it!

In short: One of the friendliest races I have done.
In full: Was a bit anxious that this early in the year this distance could be a little serious, but despite being closer to the back than the front had a great race. Busses worked like clockwork from the carparks and the marshalls were fab. Will be back next year.
