In short: Nice intro to hill running
In full: I had never run a hill race before and this proved to be a great starting point. A short 6 miler but with 2 really good climbs over Harrow Hill and through the world famous school.
Friendly people and smooth organisation made it feel welcoming and an unexpected goodie bag at the finish was a nice touch.

In short: Two Laps Around Harrow Hill and Environs
In full: First time running this race and I'll be back next year. Found the hills a bit tough but rewarded with a nice, long downhill. Friendly marshalls, the sun shone, worth doing.

In short: Testing hills
In full: Enjoyed it and the hill wasn't too bad with an immediate repayment on the downhill afterwards. Alhough it's not a course which is conducive to marathon training, I don't understand why more people don't do it in February. Local clubs were under-represented today.
