In short: Brilliant Race
In full: As always a well organised event. Managed to get round despite the warm weather, the lack of training (once a week, at best) and the hills, hills and more hills. A tough race but well worth the effort. It's always on my list of events to do each year. It should be on yours aswell.

In short: Second time as good as the first, thanks Baildon Runners
In full: 6 seconds slower than last year but conditions underfoot were worse and I took a nasty tumble in the woods at Shipley (thanks to the runner and the walker who stopped to help me)which shook me up a bit. Brilliant route, fantastic support from marshalls and a nice sweatshirt for your effort. Managed to keep going up all the hills this year (just)

In short: Absolutely brilliant
In full: Baildon Runners should be congratulated for another excellent BBW event. Well organised, great marshalls, tough course, killer hills but well worth running it. Nice jumper aswell at the end. Will back again next year(as always).

In short: Nice scenery and well organised, but a very challenging race. The climb after the 9 mile mark was a killer.

In short: Hills, Hills and a nice long flat canal side!
In full: It might look like a nice ramble through the woods and accross the moor, but its hard work! The marshalls were great especially those at the water station at 8.5 miles!
