In short: I keep coming back despite that hill
In full: Make no mistake this is not an easy race. The two mile long hill, although not steep seems to take its toll on the old legs.
At least, unlike most years, the wind was not blowing so that was a crumb of comfort.
As it's one of my more local races I always try to do it but that hill doesn't get any easier.
A very well organised event of which Accrington RR can be proud.

In short: Hilly, but good race.
In full: Quite a tough 10k with lots of hills, but no seriously steep ones.
Friendly marshals. Nice atmosphere.
Nice t-shirt.

In short: first time i've done this run and i'll be back for more.
In full: A challenging run in that the majority of the first 3 miles is downhill before a 2 mile gradual climb. The last mile was ok though. Like someone else has said, the hill climb was made easier due to there being no wind.

In short: great race, great t-shirt, well organised
In full: thanks to all marshals/volunteers and spectators for shouts of encouragement,weather was ideal this year, last year I remember a head-on wind going up the hill made it even more challenging
