Is anyone doing this event this year? I did Wilmslow as my 1st half marathon and fancy doing another one, just the hills scare me!

I think there are two big hills, one is quite long, I found it quite challenging but overall it is a great race, you do seem to be able to catch yourself up on the downhills, they aren't as steep, they're longer and more gradual. It's a great atmosphere too, tea and snacks for family and friends and good facilities all round.

I'd recommend this one! Was my first half marathon and I was a little worried about the hills too, but as Mr.Puffy says, they're more gradual than steep. The scenery is lovely and it's a great atmosphere. I'd definitely be doing it this year if it wasn't a week after the Anglesey Marathon that i've entered.
