In short: Great race
In full: Good atmosphere, good facilities at race hq (and no toilet q's to speak of really)excellent marshalls and support, great tshirt and goodie bag which with the chip timing make it an absolute bargain. Very tough hill but nice scenery. Loved the brass band at the start/finish and the "piano" player in the woods on the way round! In short I would recommend it and will be back next year.

In short: Great race!
In full: Great race! Well organised, great atmosphere, good mix of abilities, excellent marshalls and support along the challenging course. Good to get some encouragement from the announcer on my way round for the second lap. Dont be put off by the two lap situation. It just means you are more prepared for the awful hill second time round! Loved the goodie bag and techy tshirt. Very professional set up and it was obvious that the organisers had considered what us runners want on a Sunday morning-nice challenging course and atmosphere, food, beer and a good memento. Thanks Stadium Runners!

In short: Absolutely brilliant
In full: This race is absolutely wonderful. Takes in some of the most beautiful scenery in the world, attracts a wide ability of runners, good atmosphere, excellent organisation and marshals and a good tshirt at the end. And don't forget to have a pint of the nice ale in The Red Lion while you watch the presentation. An absolute credit to Alnwick Harriers and the community and area. Will definitely be back next year!

In short: Great race again
In full: Well organised, loved the mug and mars bar at the end, great marsalls and a great atmosphere amongst the runners. No real q's for the loo but didnt realise the showers for the ladies would be quite as limited. But a pb for me by nearly 4 minutes. So well chuffed! Thanks guys!

In short: Great race
In full: Well organised and a lovely course. Though the word undulating was invented to describe this course! I managed a pb! Tshirt with my name on is a nice touch but I would have liked a medal, if only because I got a pb!!!
Marshalls excellent. Crowd support at start and finish very good. Great atmosphere around the course and some very friendly runners on the way round. Thank you again to the lady who helped me out at the end when I was a bit ill!
