In short: Well worth doing mainly for the hills, atmosphere, T'shirt and the burger
In full: Great atmosphere at the beginning and support in the wings , not really a pb race due to the undulating hills through out.Good race to enter mainly as a very hard training run with great scenery and opposition. Just so you can judge whether you need to fit some more hill sessions in before winter.The 3 water stations well organised even having a bin too throw your cup in as you run.Quality printed long sleeved Teeshirts when you finished. Another bonus was the BBQ for a welcome burger and pint.Well done Wolds Veteran Running Club for a great day out. Mark Estienne (ACORN RUNNING CLUB YORK)
