Rememberance day 10k. Great race! Has a hill or two but it is worth it!! fantastic to run the country roads and reflect on the efforts of the brave service men and women that serve our country. Highly recommend this race.

Lovely scenery and loved the downhill bits. Scenic run, not too busy and well organised 2 min silence. Could have done with extra people to process numbers before race, start time slightly delayed as long queue of people but overall great event. Hope to return next year (& run ALL those hills!)

Great run. Tricky course at times with plenty of hills, including the killer last one. Lots of encouragement on the way round, with jelly beans offered before the last climb

An enjoyable run. A good run, plenty of hills, a good view over Portsmouth at the start.

Absolutely loved this event. Well organised from start to finish. The sound of The Last Post followed by a minute silence before the run was a very nice touch. The route gave a good mix of uphill and downhill with the final hill very challenging but knowing the finish line is right at the top of the hill pushes you on. The medal was absolutely perfect and I'm proud to display it! Thank you for a great event! We Will Remember Them!
