In short: 2013 race great again
In full: Well organised and friendly race. Gentle but relentlessly undulating up for 11m then flat and marvellous but punishing steep downs. Punishing headwind on the up section but as it could have been heavy rain all day (the night before) or hot all day (the day after), perfect running conditions.
My only niggle: runners who dropped their gel packs along the way. This is the peak district - please take your rubbish home with you or drop it at bins at the water stations. Apparently a lot thought that dropping them in the Hopton Tunnel is OK because it's in the dark. Come on guys, you all know better..
