The event was well organised, the route was scenic and well marked, and the snacks at the aid station were yummy. It was my first time running at Heaton Park so I didn’t know what to expect. The course/loop was full of hills which made each consecutive loop more difficult as the number of loops increased. I chose this event as a training experience for a marathon and it was worth it.
