In full: Somehow did not seem to have the buzz I expected, but all for a good cause and worth it.

In short: Hard work
In full: Had nothing left in me at the end, but this race gives a good feel good factor afterwards. I found it very hard but it has prompted me to try to get fitter. Thanks to the great marshalls

In short: 2nd time round for me but still a tough one
In full: On the basis of doing this is a decent time for me, have entered Liversedge half marathon. Is it any hillier than this one?

In short: Really enjoyed this today
In full: Was not on my best form but the race was brill and got me back in the zone. Thanks to orgasiers, it all went really smoothy and puts some bigger 10ks like Clumber Park in the shade. That last hill was a killer but made me enjoy my bacon sandwich even more after.

In short: Very disappointing
In full: Amazed myself by my time for a first half marathon, but the sheer frustration caused by the poor organisation made it such an anticlimax and a let down.
Was expecting motivational vibes no stop-even the tune I requested when I applied- but I must be very gullible. Travelled down from Yorkshire for this- in future will stay local or try for the Great North Run.
So very let down.

In short: Disappointing
In full: After last years mix up at the start, this year it was at the beginning. Very frustating queues and I was well early.
Surprised there was a 15 min delay, was expecting it to be longer. Shame about excatly same T shirt as last year- did they have a job lot? Very little atmosphere, an anticlimax at the end and felt let down, even though did a very good time and possibly a PB. Leeds Abbey Dash runs like clockwork, with a massive field- whats up Clumber?
