2011 leeds abbey dash
 | | Overall score | | 100% | | Would you do it again? | | Yes | | | | Details: | | Scenery | | 40% | | PB potential | | 100% | | Atmosphere | | 80% | | Organisation | | 80% | | Value | | 60% | | Beginner-friendliness | | 60% |
In short: Super speedy competitive race
In full: Excellent for a PB but packed with fast runners. Start was cramped as ever but the organisation of the expected times was better than it used to be. Now the Abbey isn't on the route (particularly in the fog this year - you couldn't even see it) the route is not a sightseeing trip though!

2009 Leeds 10K - Jane Tomlinson's "Run For All"
| | Overall score | | 100% | | Would you do it again? | | Yes | | | | Details: | | Scenery | | 60% | | PB potential | | 60% | | Atmosphere | | 100% | | Organisation | | 80% | | Value | | 80% | | Beginner-friendliness | | 100% |
In short: Excellent race but very packed!
In full: Great race around Leeds - could be improved by including a few more scenic Leeds features (?!) suggestions - tour of the University campuses, more laps of city centre bits or out to the Headingley or Elland road stadiums maybe? Great atmosphere but the trade off is it's far too packed to run too fast! Good band on the route and support

In short: Great scenery and race but tough wind this year!
In full: All was going really well until those last three Km into the wind! 20:57 at 5 K but over 45 min for full race!
Great scenery, cause and organisation. WIthout the wind definite PB material!

2007 Leeds 10K - Jane Tomlinson's "Run For All"

In short: Great atmosphere, great race, taxing hills!
In full: Brilliant atmosphere and organisation, brilliant fun. Seperation of runners of different speeds and start meant if you wanted to get away fast you had to be alert or face serious crowding. Those long, not particualrly steep, but very wearing, hills and crowds took their toll so no PB :-(, but it was a great fun event with a good goody bag, brilliant friendly atmosphere and fantastic cause, even the sun came out! Definitely one to do again.
