In short: 30th !
In full: enjoyed it.
very smoothly organised. obvious / fun theme and weather amenable.
great value with a decent goody bag (bar, bottle, sweatband, pen, voucher) with a tech t-shirt with a great design.
well done worksop harriers!

In short: i never complain at a PB - especially when its by 3 minutes
In full: nice scenic, undulating lanes, well organised and marshalled. the hills make the race - if it was all flat the opening 4 miles would have looked like an endless road.

In short: Very well organised
In full: My only complaint is that my legs had nothing left after running a full marathon last week!
Well organised, great Hallowe'en theme, marshalls in fancy dress, accurate mile markers, good water stations (maybe next year the witches could hand out blood and something green?!).
Thanks for a lovely race, see you next year!

In short: A lovely route with a great downhill finish
In full: Good organistion pre-race, collecting race number was a smooth process. After the initial shock of the hill start the route became a lovely trek through lanes and the park..finished off by a mile of speedy downhill stuff.... A good event.
