In short: Course is a vast improvement
In full: Far better course than previous. Whole race is on road & quite flat. Trunk road is long and boring but that cant be helped. Carpark closed because of waterlogging is not the organisers fault. Rather have a medal than a T shirt, only have so much draw space these days.

In short: Mini Dentdale. Lovely race
In full: Nice little race. Smallish field, quiet roads,couple of hills. Beautiful scenery. Quaint pubs, glad i decided to stay the night. This type of race is far more interesting than your town centre 2000 runner event. Get yourself here next year.

In short: Beware the hills and the dog mess
In full: quite tough, but enjoyable. Its a pity the local dog walkers dont clean up after their pets. Never seen so many dog eggs on public paths. Putting bags on my trainers next year.

In short: Well organised. excellent start
In full: Should stay as a 10k for a couple of years. Hope the half marathon does not deter beginners and novices. Though i hope it attracts plenty of runners discouraged by the Great North run's extortionate fee
