In short: fantastic organisation, great varied challanging route absolutley one of the best !
In full: A really superb race, very well organised, plenty of encouraging marshalls, nice tough route with loads of variety and river crossing at the end. Probably my favourite tough race really can't fault it, generous goory bag, a must for every runner who wants a change from a boring road race !!!

In short: Well organised by a friendly club. Great location and course with a special twist at the end.
In full: Tonia
My first time at the Bluebell. I would like to thank all the wonderfully friendly marshals and club members who made it a super day. The course is a chalange but is never dull and is stunning in places. Not for nothing is it called the Bluebell, the wooods where in full bloom, the sweetest smelling course imaginable. The run up Trooper Lane requires hands on knees, the jelly badies from the marshall at the seven mile mark rejuvinated me.
A grand day out in Yorkshire.
Regards
Tonia Russell

In short: Not for faint hearted, but worth having a go, but don't expect PB.
In full: I had a crisis of confidence and nearly didn't do it, but glad that i had a go. I was one of those at the back,but kept going. Not easy to get an even pace going because of terrain. The marshelling and organistion was excellent and very encouraging. The river crossing was fun and a light relief after all the effort I had to put in to get round and you didn't have to run far to finish. Road running will never be same agian. Thank you to all the volunteers who organised it and made it a race to remember. Hope to do it next year and improve on time.
