In short: one for the calender
In full: a great day out, def a pb course, i was about 6 mins slower than my pb but only cause of ongoing injury. will def be back next year. great medal, no t-shirt or goodybag but a good deal considering the small entrance fee, who wants a load of crud at the finish anywayz? scenery was good most of the route

In short: good for a p.b. 2011 race
In full: just over 200 feet of climb and a flat first few miles knocked 7 mins off my previous pb time. why this race only gets about 200 runners i dunno, out of the half marathons i have done so far this was my fav. the croud support could have been better but i wasn't bothered. really good all round race with t-shirt and medal to finish. if i could only do 1 next year, it'll be this 1 for sure.

In short: my home race
In full: cumbrian run is a good half, about 400 feet of climb overall so average undulating half. most of climb is within the first 3.5 miles then mostly flat from there on in - except 1 small hill at around 11.5 miles. good t-shirt and medal to finish, good crowd support. start slightly congested - but after 400 yards course opens up so its easy to overtake if u need 2. worth the congested start to run through the castle gates. entries now open for 2011, i'm in, cant wait for 2nd october 2011

In short: rip off- 2011 run
In full: the race itself was good however have never crossed a line before and given so little. an apple and a bottle of water, if u wanted a place mat with a picture of the route on it- it'll cost u an extra 3quid. really bad value, then an extra 2 quid to park on the rugby pitch. lol, could be a really good 1 for the calender but sadly its really let down by organisers being so dam tight.

In short: great day out, will do again
In full: a long drive round for me living in carlisle but well worth it, scenery great, even drive round was nice, how they manage the great grub and goody bag at the end for my entrance fee i'll never know. hope to be back next year but mays a busy month on the calander. very windy on the day. well done to all those involved
