First time at Richmond - a lot of climbs made this a tough gig! Some downhill as well as up! Very laid back event - no music whatsoever which surprised me - nice route though and thank you to all the volunteers

Brilliantly organised ! Great track, great marshalls, signs, location, team! The only thing I would suggested is to have another water station half way through rather just at the start (only due to the hot weather), nothing to fault ! Would definitely do again! Thank you!

I've run this Richmond route a couple of times now, once as a 10km and this weekend as a half marathon and it's a brilliant event mainly due to the volunteers, they're so wonderfully positive and supportive and they make such a difference to the day! As well as this it's a lovely route (a little more challenging than my usual Battersea half) and easy to get to.

I signed up for my first running event (It was the 10km version) and I was super nervous about how I was going to do. Luckily the organisers made it really easy with pre-race instructions on where to park, what to bring, the course map, etc... And they were super helpful on the day with good signage and lots of marshalls. I would highly recommend signing up!

It suggests trail shoes but I did it in Brooks Ghost 17's and found them a good fit for the race (It was a little wet from rain the previous days but we had good weather on the day). There's 1 muddy section which I can see becoming a little slippery if it's raining but it's manageable :)

I did the 10k with my niece and had a great day, I have run many races before including half marathons, marathons and countless 10k's. It was my nieces first race and she loved it! A great atmosphere and scenic route made it a perfect run for us to do together.

First race I've done.

Route was lovely and perfect for 10k - i could see how it would get repetitive if I was doing a half marathon but it was great for 5k or a 10k

staff lovely and support great :)

I've done this half marathon twice now and its a great little event. The setup is cheap and cheerful with a very nice team running the show. Because of the loose surface and hills its a tough run and great training to get the fitness up.

Thank you to the organiser for a lovely morning! This was my first 10k, and having only done Parkrun before I was a bit nervous doing a "proper" race with a number/timing chip. I really didn't need to be. It was a lovely atmosphere and the organisers and marshalls were so friendly and helpful. The course is a 5k loop, so 10k does two loops (there was a water station at the 5k mark) and half marathon does a 1k out and back at the start, followed by 4 laps. The medals are handed out at the finish line and you get a bottle of water and sweets at the end.

The weather was slightly rainy on the day. The organisers recommended trail shoes, but the course is largely tarmac/gravel with a little bit on grass, which was a little slippery in the weather, but decent road shoes are fine. Most of the course is a gentle uphill, with a steep downhill section.

Richmond Park is lovely, but it is very large! I thought it would be easy to reach from Richmond, but the race starts at Sheen Gate which is not very easy to get to on a Sunday morning.

Results were sent online almost instantly, and I loved being able to get my time as soon as the race finished.

I would recommend this race to anyone running their first 10k!

This was my first half marathon and I loved it. The course was beautiful, it was all very organised and the organisers themselves were lovely. I read the race info and it said to wear trail shoes however most wore road shoes and that’s what I’m going to do next time. Would definitely do it again and I 100% recommend it!!

Lovely location around Richmond Park. Very well organised and overall a nice fun feel to the day. I ran a half marathon in Sep and was lucky with the lovely weather too!

This was my first half marathon ever, so don't have much to make a comparison with, but for a first experience the day was made very easy by the organisers. The venue was stunning, helped in part by the weather, and was a good balance of terrain and elevation.
It was very smooth to register with clear instructions on where to go.
One downside was how busy the course got. As well as the general public - walkers, horse riders, cyclists, other runners etc. - the course got very busy when the 5K and 10K races got under way, and trying to navigate so many runners/walkers when you're on your final miles was a little tricky.
The route was a series of laps, which has its updsides and downsides, but for the most part was OK.
Nice medal and good T-shirt to remember the day too (t-shirt cost extra).
From my very limited experience this was a good race.

This was my first half marathon and the day was just perfect, sunny an suitably cool at least initially. The location is simply stunning!
The ground was dry on which was great as, like many I run with road shoes. Others reviewers of past event had recommended this.
With my running team mate we had prepared and reviewed the course and practiced a few laps during our training. It helped motivate me past the 17th km which was our longest run
The event was very well organised and not too crowded. The events team are nice and enthusiastic people, encouraging along the way and giving clear indications. The water station provided only water (not isotonic water, possibly do avoid adverse reactions). I would suggest they move to paper cups and space the waste buckets further from the pickup table.
I thoroughly recommend this run and the team behind it.
