In short: Nice scenic flat route
In full: marshalls very good, drink stations well run, great weather, great route.
Could do with some extra toilets at the start, for £20 could have posted numbers out.

In short: Excellent race really enjoyed it, again
In full: Always surprises me how much I enjoy this race, with the mix of scenery and the hills, ups and downs, you never really notice you running through houseing estates. As always excellent organisation and cheery friendly marshalls, well done Stockport Harriers.

In short: Nice race
In full: Nice course, well organised with encouraging friendly marshalls.
1 Gripe - more water at the finish please it was almost gone by the time I finished and there was some red faced people who didn't get a drink, did this race in April last year and the same thing happened.

In short: Nice course
In full: nice course, good views, well marshalled, few people out to give you a cheer which was nice, enjoyable day out, OH enjoyed looking round Ashbourne too while I was running so she was happy too! Pity about the poor organisation at the start

In short: Good race, if anyone has wanted to try a fell race this is a perfect one to start with
In full: Not done a fell race for a while, and this was just the perfect race to get me back into it, bit steep for the first couple of miles, then nice across the tops, good descent down and a lovely river crossing at the end to cool you down and clean your shoes!!!!!!!!!

In short: One of those races you just have to do
In full: Excellent organisation, not just for the actual race but the administration beforehand, nice to recieve the email to check if you had recieved your number. The day was great (apart from the wind) the local support was good, the marshals and the drink stations outstanding, well done Brian and your team, great bag, i was getting sick of cups and t shirts!
