I did the half marathon event, canal race from Bingley heading up the 3 & 5 rise locks and far beyond (out and back course). Wonderful views and well marshalled. Grim events are very friendly because of the smaller numbers taking part

This event didn't even happen, I walked around Bingley for an hour looking for any evidence of a race, there wasn't any, this was an absolute scam, I am furious!

There were no vegan food options, including for the chocolate that was included in the entry fee :( I saw that there were other vegan runners too, so I think this should be provided at future races.

It was my 1st half marathon and 1st in a race environment. I really enjoyed the experience. It was well organised and everyone who managed/participated in the event were very friendly. The route along the canal was great and very scenic. The choice of cakes/drinks afterwards were excellent. Great value.
