The best race in London. This was my 3rd Shoreditch 10k and it is always well organised. The course is twisty and flat with a few nice straights, a perfect mix for PB's and fun. There is a push to go plastic free which is great and the tee and medal are brilliant.

By far the best organised event I’ve attended. Everything about the event was perfect in my opinion, the atmosphere was buzzing from start to finish, the route was ideal for good performances, not to mention the t shirt and the other benefits runners received. I wasn’t sure about entering the Fulham 10k but after this I most definitely will be. The thing that stood out the most for me at this event was the emphasis on using the minimum amount of plastic possible, something other events really don’t seem to focus on

Great event. My first Adidas run and absolutely loved it.
The racing tee was of great quality and I liked the fact it had the bib number on it.
The venue was easy to get to and bag drop was quick and easy. They also had a small changing room/tent which was a neat touch.
The route was interesting and entertainment during the race was perfect.
The medal is really neat.
Would highly recommend this race.

Good event - a bit pricey. Pre-race:
The packs are sent in the post in advance and the t-shirt is good quality. There's no running number as this is printed on your t-shirt, which is novel.
Race Day:
Organisation is good. There is a bit of standing around in pens before the start and, if it's raining, you get very cold and wet.
Route:
Very zig-zaggy but completely flat; it does get a bit tiring going around corners constantly. There were a lot of people running very 'erratically' and this can be annoying - you might get bumped into as people jump around trying to cut corners. The route is slightly congested in places.
Post-race:
The 'after party' at the end of the race is great, with plenty on offer to do post-race. Having the medal handed to you by elite Adidas runners was a nice touch!
Other comments:
The medal is huge and heavy. Almost unnecessarily so. City runs are expensive compared to other 10kms races (even others in the city); you do get the Adidas t-shirt, which is nice and makes a change, but the medal is too large/heavy and could be made smaller to save a few quid.
Would I do it again? Yes, probably.
