In short: I actually ran this race in Febuary 2007 but it doesn't have this year!!
In full: Good race very hilly on the first half around the Great Orme but worth the challenge. Recieved a memorial Mug at the end. All awards were given in the conference centre after. Was brilliant weather this year. I won the award for 1st female under 20s which made my day!!

In short: The 6th year I have run, and for me best 10k in North Wales.
In full: This is always an enjoyable race, even when the weather conditions are a little inclement . The weather this year was far better than last year, just a gentle gale at the top of the Orme - last year there were runners literally being blown over. On a fine day the views from the top are absolutely spectacular.

The marshalling was, as always, first class. Thanks to all those involved in the organisation.

In short: Wonderful organisers, very friendly and very efficient, and lots of "unattached" runners.

In short: Another wet & windy day for this race, but that only adds to the charm of running up the Great Orme. Great race with excellent organisation

In short: Horrendous weather conditions - only the extremely insane would have ventured out in the conditions. It was great.

In short: Gale-force winds made it very difficult to breath for this asthma sufferer, but enjoyed second half of race (mainly downhill)!
