In short: Great, no frills trail run In full: I really enjoyed this. A very scenic trail run on good trails and tracks, great views from the moor at the top. The last 3 miles are all down hill making for a fast finish. The organisation was very good and a 'diamond jubilee' mug was a nice memento of a cracking event. I had a 220 mile round trip for this, but will hopefully be back next year. Thanks to Ilkley Harriers! Date of review: June 5, 2012

In short: An excellent race in horrible weather In full: I'm slightly biased as I live locally and run the route at least once a month, however it is my favourite race; the course, marshalls and atmosphere are always excellent, even in terrible weather! Date of review: May 1, 2012

In short: Low key, PB course In full: I really enjoyed this marathon. A quick course, good weather and plenty of water stations. The support was sporadic but enthusiastic, especially the lady with the cow bell outside Wetherspoons! I enjoyed running past the tacky shop fronts and then dropping down to promenade with great views out to sea. The goody bag was a bit light; but who runs a marathon for a goody bag? The road closures must have cost a fair amount too, so overall no real complaints: I'll hopefully be back next year.

In short: Fantastic! In full: It was a great day out. The route is tough (for me) but the sceney and challenge of running 40miles in the Peaks more than compensates. The helpers and the organisation are fantastic. Date of review: September 18, 2011
