It was amazing experience.
Despite horrendous weather I really enjoyed. As doing 10k I had to do 4laps. Route was well indicated and many people to direct you the right way. However most information was given when I was in the toilet a d could not hear it, luckily my friend was listening and passed it to me. Terrain was mostly flat, not much mud or water.
It was my first registered run and I got my new PB! Definitely will sign up for next one! Maybe in warmer months
RunThrough has organised a great event! Really friendly and helpful stuff. Fun activities to do during the waiting and for your supporters.
The instructions before the race were well provided.
The run was smoothly leaded. Nice people and “opponents”.
I will definitely join another RunThrough!

The event was great even on a rainy morning. The path of the park is regular, wide, and flat, lovely for running. The event was very well organized and the staff were cheerful and attentive.
Well organised, friendly and professional support, up-beat atmosphere and good facilities such as toilet and bag drop-off. I really liked the pace runners.
Only area for improvement was the start of the 10 km race which took a while to get organised on a narrow path next to a muddy patch of grass. Runners were getting cold and wet whilst the sizable field of runners were lining up in their respective time slot.

Great race, really nice organisation and friendly marshalls. The course is nice and flat, 4 laps for a 10k is a bit repetitive but aside from that all good! Was my first event for a few years and a great one to ease back into it.

Amazing race, the organisation was on point, better that most of my previous race. I came from Paris and I will never forget my first 10k in the UK. That park is amazing, fresh air lots of space. If I had to made a suggestion it would be a wider starting line. Bravo!
10/10. This was my first proper race and it was a great introduction - the staff were organised, kind, efficient and friendly and I honestly can't think of one thing I'd improve on. The course was nice and flat, and everything was set up well so it was easy to follow. I strongly recommend!

Fantastic event. I loved this event: the people were friendly and helpful, everything was extremely well-organised and the atmosphere was fantastic. Will definitely go again!
A perfect flat course. This was only my third 10km race, and I was delighted to manage a significant improvement on my previous times! This was hugely helped by the totally flat route. I enjoyed the 'lap style' route, as ticking off each lap made the end seem tangibly closer. The staff were friendly and helpful. The course was well marked. The medal was excellent! Highly recommended!

Great race. I chose this one to improve my PB - which I’ve done. Great organisation. I really like them because they care. From the start to the finish, everything was spot on and pictures being free is a big plus. Thank you!

Friendly, well organised run. Great flat run with lots of friendly people involved. My first time running a 4 x lap course & that was a bit boring to be honest but it was a fun event to be part of

Battersea Park 10k. I couldnt have wanted a better experience for my first 10K! Communication was excellent from booking right until race team. The organisation and effort which was made by the whole RunthroughUK team made all the difference. Thankyou for a very memeorable time, Audrey
