2011 Newcastle Dales Dash
 | | Overall score | | 100% | | Would you do it again? | | Yes | | | | Details: | | Scenery | | 100% | | PB potential | | 40% | | Atmosphere | | 100% | | Organisation | | 100% | | Value | | 100% | | Beginner-friendliness | | 40% |
In short: Challenging course and very well organised
In full: This is very well organised event. Race marshalls were plentiful, friendly and very helpful even guiding me into my car parking space. The 10K route is challenging in places, notably the hills at the start and finish. The weather was drizzly and this made it quite slippery and muddy underfoot so I'd recommend trail shoes.
Overall, brilliant, I can't wait for next year.

2011 Bupa Great Birmingham Run
| | Overall score | | 100% | | Would you do it again? | | Yes | | | | Details: | | Scenery | | 40% | | PB potential | | 60% | | Atmosphere | | 100% | | Organisation | | 100% | | Value | | 40% | | Beginner-friendliness | | 80% |
In short: Challenging hills in parts
In full: Excellent atmosphere with lots of spectators throughout the whole route. Organisation brilliant with sensible wave starts. Goodie bag, tshirt and medal all were all very good. My only gripe is a large part course (between 2 and 8 miles) is along one straight road (Pershore) where you run to the end then loop back on the opposite side of the road.
