"There are 2 distances, the long route of 20K and the short route of 12K. Both provide significant a challenge to those who like off-road, mixed terrain running. The area around Osmotherley provides some amazing running terrain, which this event takes full advantage of. The event will start and finish in the beautiful village of Osmotherley. The route will take you out of the village on the Cleveland Way to the mast at Beacon Hill before heading back towards Cod Beck Reservoir. A short road section will take you to Square Corner… this is where the serious climbing begins on the long route, upwards onto the Black Hambleton Hills, where the views on a clear day will take your breath away. You will stay high for 3 miles before dropping back down towards Square Corner, returning to Osmotherley via the Cleveland Way. The route will be well marked and will follow public footpaths and bridleways at all times." "Goody bags for all finishers, with refreshments at the event HQ."

In 2016, "the race sold out in an incredible 50 minutes". Following feedback, this year the organisers are using a two stage entry system that is described on this web page. Here's my summary. 'A pre-entry registration system will open on Feb 1st at 0900 and remain open until Feb 26th at 2200. When you fill in the pre-entry form, you will be asked to select a time-slot that is the most convenient for you to enter the race. You can choose between 0700 (Morning), 1230 (Lunch), and 2000 (Evening). You will then be able to enter the race on Tue Feb 28th at your chosen time-slot. There will be 145 places available at each time-slot.' "Collect race number and chip on the night." "Race HQ is located at The Tyne Bar, Maling Street." "The race start is located on the Quayside footpath to the west of the Millennium Bridge, it is approximately half a mile from the Race HQ." "The race is a flat and fast out and back course starting on the iconic Newcastle Quayside." "The route follows the riverside path, passing underneath or alongside 7 of the Bridges of the Tyne - heading West the course takes you to the Newcastle Business Park before turning and heading back East to finish at the mouth of the Ouseburn."

"Venue is the Adderstone car park in Dalby Forest." "The Marathon/Half start at 0930; the 10K starts at around 1000." "The route of the Marathon/Half heads through the forest, with extensive views when gently descending Stoneclose Rigg, enabling you to catch your breath before the sharp climb out of Staindale and up to the Fox and Rabbit Pub - it's then down the pleasant meanderings of Cross Dale - the route then turns up Newtondale and its challenge of ups and downs and the occasional (depends on the weather) mud of Levisham woods. Onwards and upwards to Levisham elbow. At this point the routes of the Marathon/Half split." When later they rejoin, you use "the Old Wife’s Way to go along the edge of Lockton Low Moor with extensive views of Blakey Topping on your left and Langdale and Dalby Forest filling your view on the right. Then some truly lovely running (it’s a gently downhill, soft going, single track footpath) down past the Bridestones and into a beautiful piece of mature woodland and down into Staindale with last grab of water before the sharp climb back to the finish." "These are stunning routes at any time of the year but reach their peak in the Autumn with the richness of colours in the forest and moors at this time of year." "We are also running a simple and not too challenging 10K around the Adderstone area along forest tracks." "Medal." "Price includes entry to the Forest."

The following details were appropriate for 2016:You collected your race number and chip on the day. Both the Half Marathon and the 10K started at 1100. 'The race route for the Half is basically an out-and-back. Starting on the A68 opposite the Abbey, the route goes north along the A68, turns right up past Woodend and the back of Riverside, then east along the A698 towards Kelso. At around 4 miles, there is a small detour off the main road past Crailing church; the route then continues east along the A698 towards Kelso. At around 6 miles, the route turns right towards Eckford then loops back towards the A698 to start the return journey. Runners will travel west along the A698 towards Bonjedward then south along the A68 towards Jedburgh, to finish on the grass by the river opposite Queen Mary's house.' The race route for the 10K is the same as the Half but with a turnround point on the A698 at 5K. "Chip timing.' In 2016 you got a medal and the T-shirt was extra. Part of the Running Festival - 'Saturday will have the Three Peaks races and Cani-cross races - Sunday will have the Wheelchair and Handbike 10k race as well as the Half Marathon and 10K events.' After doing the 2003 Half, I wrote 'Mainly flat, some uninteresting long straight roads' but it's where I got my PB.

"The Sheffield Half Marathon route boasts one of the most scenic routes in the UK, combining a great city centre start and finish with some of the Peak District's most spectacular views. Participants take the 'triple test', tackling a timed 'King of the Hill' or 'Queen of the Hill' challenge, a 10K sprint section and the overall half marathon. The route starts in the heart of the city. Runners then journey along Ecclesall Road before taking a right turn up towards Ringinglow.Then they run along country roads and on to the famous Norfolk Arms, where the route takes a left turn and offers superb views of the city of Sheffield and the Peak District. Those views are then left behind as the course heads downhill to the outskirts of Dore, back to Ecclesall Road and on to the grand finish at the Town Hall." "Participants take the 'triple test' giving entrants a chance to be crowned 'King of the Hill' or 'Queen of the Hill' in a timed hill climb, triumph in a 10K largely-downhill sprint section and cross the finish line first to lift the Sheffield Half Marathon title." "Chip timing." "Technical T-shirt, medal, goody bag." "Youngsters have the opportunity to be involved by signing up for the event's Mini and Junior runs."

"The race starts on Hell Wath Nature Reserve, goes up Whitcliffe Lane onto public footpaths through Mackershaw Woods and then down to the Seven Bridges where it turns sharply right to go over the bridges and on up to Plumpton Lane and the entrance to the deer park - after going through the deer park and round the back of the Fountains Abbey estate the race makes its way back to Hell Wall via Fountains Lane and Whitcliffe Lane."
