The organisers were relaxed and tremendously friendly. The Turn Up Get Going start made it completely stress free. Although it was a laps race I didn't find it boring and the presence of people giving gentle encouragement made the whole experience more fun.

In 2020 Tim and Jenny set up Running Events Devon, we believe in being inclusive, we wish to encourage and enable all types of walkers and runners to achieve their own target. Tim started running in 2009 with the aim of completing London Marathon in 2010, well he managed that and just kept on running! In 2017 he completed his 100th marathon and 2019 saw him complete his 200th marathon. He is still running marathons to date, he uses the term running very loosley as it is more a walk run, but it doesn't matter about time it is about completing and getting to the target he wants to achieve! Jenny started helping at running events in 2009, she is well known for her encouragement to all runners of all abilities. She is not a runner herself but has learnt a lot through marshalling, helping and having both Tim and their son Ben running at lots of events.
