If you like hills, this is the race for you...! I was given a place last minute and wasnt sure what to expect. I live not far from Huddersfield so I know the landscape is, quite unforgiving. The organisers were fantastic in changing the details from my friend, (who was injured), to myself and the whole process was faultless. I arrived at Huddersfield RUFC with it's viaduct overlooking the pitch, on a cold but dry morning. One thing I did like, is that you collected your race tshirt at the start so you are free to head off as soon as you have finished if you wish. As you begin, you are immediately confronted with a HILL! Then some flat, then another hill - a long one..... As you may guess, I am not a fan of hills, but this is Huddersfield so there is no getting away from them. But as they say, what goes up, must come down! This course is very scenic, certainly one of the nicer runs I have done. If you are looking for something slightly challenging to blow away the new year cobwebs, then this is for you. Hilly, very scenic, and friendly. All I would say, is get there reasonably early to get a parking spot...
