In short: good atmosphere, dull scenery, well organised- changed from tetley's to yorkshire tea!!
In full: my first 10k and first great yorkshire run for sheffield. has the potential to be a great success next year however a more thoughtful route would be a must. London road to millhouses a bit dull.
On the positive really enjoyed the atmosphere will definately do again next year.
A great event to get the people of sheffield off their a***s!

In short: Well organised, but ..........
In full: Expensive, boring route, poor spectatorship, and if that was a goody bag, I'd hate to see what a saddy bag looks like. The only pluses for me were the big screen at the 5k mark, the medal and teashirt - and I loved Sheffield, for the first time of visiting it.
