Simonstone 10k Nr Burnley 20th May

First time this race had been run so decided to have a go as a part of my hill training. Did expect it to be hilly but what a hard effort is needed to judge and get the pace right for a steady climb to beyond the 2 1/2 K point then undulating and a long down hill to the finish.Only 63 runnners on this first time out but a nice venue , a challenging event,and good views if you have the energy left to look around when you get to the top.One runner suggested it was like a fell run on tarmac.
