In short: Excellent race - great atmosphere - a nasty steep hill!
In full: Second time running this one for me, and I'd forgotten how bad the steep hill feels! I'd definitely do it again though, the atmosphere and organisation are spot on. Thank you Harrogate Harriers

In short: Suprisingly tough course
In full: The course was a lot hillier than I was expecting with a very steep section at around 2 miles. Because it was a two lap course, this meant that you knew that it was also going to be very steep at around the 5 mile mark!
Somehow I managed to get a PB on this course. I could have been that the finish was fantastic. Steep down hill through a throng of cheering people.
The organsiation was good, there was a bit of a crisis with a lack of safety pins but lucky I had brought some with me.
The only problem was that we had to park quite far away from the start. But I guess that can't be avoided for a town centre 10k.

In short: Undulating course and well organised
In full: Different course to when I last ran it a few years ago, better for it as there are fewer hills believe it or not... Not as scenic now but still respectable enough. Well organised and a pleasure to run. Thanks Harrogate Harriers.

In short: Very well organised - an excellent atmosphere!
In full: Tough uphill - a bit of a surprise on the first lap! Then it's much worse when you know it's waiting for you second time around. A very rewarding race.
