In short: A nice way to start a sunday.
In full: Nice flat course for the majority. Was a little crowded at the start so might have to get there a little earlier next time.
Only issues were that water was given out in cups which makes it hard to grab when running and also the distance came out at 9.91km on my garmin. Still really enjoyed it and managed a PB

In short: Scenic, fast and friendly with good parking.
In full: Scenic course, flat and fast, good parking facilities no problems at all. Medal and water at finish, I thought the price was a little steep. Would have been nice to have had a sign or two if approaching from Elswick - Catforth no problem but parking had to ask. Didn't get to the Village Hall after so that might have improved value for money. Would do it again.

In full: A well organised race:a good course, reasonable numbers (I dont like big crowds).
A bit expensive , but so it seems are all road races compared to fell races
Only one toilet?? Or did I just not find the promised portaloos?
