Has anyone done the Huddersfield 10k before? I was wondering what the course is like.

No but its not far from me and its another one i think will be down on my 2008 calendar.

put me down for it too! ill let you know what its like!

It's a hard, hilly race - so get in some hill reps before you do it. it's usually around the last Sunday in February. Another good one, just over the hill from you, is the Meltham 10K, usually the last Sunday in January. There's changing, showers and a good club room. Again, it's hilly but very enjoyable. I ran it last year and will probably do it again next.
Cheer!

thinking about joining a club, id get to know more of these runs wouldnt i????? is it worth it? east cheshire harriers isnt that far from me!

By all means join a club. It will help maintain your motivation, teach you all you want to know about running and racing, sharpen you and make you more competitive. Don't know much about East Cheshire Harriers - except there's a chap there called Ron Woolmer who used to beat me occasionally!
Cheers!

hehehe! i will keep thinknig about it and try to pluck up the courage to join! cheers!

That sounds like me ive been promising to join a club or running group for ages but havent plucked up the courage either. I did ring someone about it once and they have a break over the summer and start up again in September but i havent rang her back in September yet

which club did you ring?

It was a running group not club, its a woman at school that runs the delph donkeys (dont laugh) its more a womens group i think but it sounded really good they do hill, speed and general runs. I keep meaning to speak to her at school maybe thats my goal for after this 10k. And i tried to contact the Saddleworth running club by email and register on their site but no one ever got back to me (theyve probably seen me run and thought they'd choose to ignore me ha)
