· 2019 Half Marathon ·

Well supported half marathon which supports the jumping jack charity.  Part road, part canal tow path and part off road up to haigh hall.  I knew there was going to be a big hill getting up there but my word the slog up to the hall was tough, thankfully it was followed with a nice downhill back to the finish.  The hill caught a lot of people out but made for a challenge.

Good medal, nice tech shirt and for the best finishing touch, a free pie at the end!  Nothing quite like stuffing your face after a 13.1 mile run.  They also did the free pie for the 5k runners as well!
