In full: thanks to all the Stadium Runners for organising a fab race, very supportive marshalls, piano in the woods (slightly surreal), tough little course, fab goody bag and excellent techy tee that WILL be worn. (and I won a spot-prize!)

2009 York 10K - Jane Tomlinson's 'Run For All'
| | Overall score | | 80% | | Would you do it again? | | Yes | | | | Details: | | Scenery | | 80% | | PB potential | | 80% | | Atmosphere | | 80% | | Organisation | | 40% | | Value | | 60% | | Beginner-friendliness | | 100% |
In short: A Shambles (the traffic, that is!)
In full: Great atmosphere and a lovely route through a scenic city. Perfect for newer runners (or indeed walkers) but also for those who like a "big race" atmosphere.
Sadly let down by some organisational details, particularly one route to the recommended carparks which meant a long traffic jam (over 50 mins to do what should have taken 10) and a delayed start.
Could also be improved by pens or at least some sort of grading by predicted time, the course is perfect for a PB if people start in the right place!
Will aim to be back next year though.

In short: Well organised and marshalled
In full: Trail race mainly through woods, uneven ground and undulating, one short "scramble". Well marked and marshalled. Even a bottle of beer instead of goody bag!

2008 Leeds Abbey Dash 10k
| | Overall score | | 80% | | Would you do it again? | | Yes | | | | Details: | | Scenery | | 40% | | PB potential | | 100% | | Atmosphere | | 60% | | Organisation | | 80% | | Value | | 60% | | Beginner-friendliness | | 80% |
In short: great race
In full: actually prefer this race to Leeds 10k, its less crowded, more about "runners", and i prefer the route and scenery. from near the back it felt a bit like we were racing cars by the end. took nearly 10mins to get through start too, not sure they had the signs correct, only about 20 people after the "sub-60" sign!

2008 GDF Suez Leeds Half-Marathon
| | Overall score | | 80% | | Would you do it again? | | Maybe | | | | Details: | | Scenery | | 40% | | PB potential | | 60% | | Atmosphere | | 60% | | Organisation | | 60% | | Value | | 80% | | Beginner-friendliness | | 80% |
In short: warmer than expected, good event
In full: did the first 2mile leg of corporate challenge. disappointing that numbers were not posted out as long queue to collect and then a rush to get buses. great to be able to see finishers coming in though. maybe full event next year?!
