In short: If you want a PB then this is the race for you!
In full: Thought organisation at the end of the race was spot on.

Only downer came from the impatient drivers who kept pulling out in front of runners.

In short: Great scenery, great people, great atmosphere and great sense of achievement at the end!
In full: Found this race really hard work but will 100% be back next year! Really appreciated packed lunch and tea at the end and was happy to pay for a Dentdale Run Hoodie with my name on the back rather than automatically get yet another T-Shirt. The posters that local school children had made to advertise race were lovely too.

In short: Despite getting drenched this race was great fun & the marshalling was excellent. All finishers got a bottle of Black Sheep ale too which was a welcome alternative to a t-shirt.

In short: Do this one every year - seemed much more congested this time round which hindered chances of a PB. Tip for next year get as close to the front as possible!

In short: Flat, fast race that finishes on a running track. Well organised but bit of a trek between parking, registration and then start line. Would definitely do it again!

In short: Great atmosphere at start but still don't know my finish time!
In full: Why did we have to pay after the event for race results & Wait so long? A real downer at the end of an otherwise enjoyable event.
