becky f Sep 2013 5:51pm, 30 Sep 2013 280 posts	0 becky f I just wanted to know which are the best races out of Stafford Liverpool or Coventry?

unknown fetchie Oct 2017 4:34pm, 23 Oct 2017 54 posts	0 unknown fetchie hi becky, I would say Liverpool. I did cardiff half a couple of weeks ago and that was great. You got some really good race times there. Keep up the good work. Tony

Oranj Oct 2017 4:49pm, 23 Oct 2017 667 posts	0 Oranj I've only run Coventry of those. The nice thing about the course is it's slightly downhill back from the furthest point, so you get a bit of a boost as you're getting tired
