The event was great, but I was not able to complete due to a man trying to push me along when I was walking and saying ‘come on it’s not a walk’ - this broke me down into tears, panic attack, and knocked my confidence! The Marshall, Sinead, really helped me and was amazing, but the whole event for me was ruined by this man :(

Very well organised. Marshals were very supportive and informative throughout. Easy to parking and enough spaces on site and parking availability close to the event.

Half marathon Course I would say is a good one for beginners but watch out for the big hill second time round at mile 10!

Excellent communication before and after the event. Well organised, lovely Marshall’s and easy to park. Nice venue.... apart from the hilly bits!! Goody bag wasn’t up to much - medal, water and revolting corn snacks. An alternative to the corn snacks really should be found. It was my first event of this kind so was very pleased with how it went.

Excellent communication before and afterwards.

Easy to park. Nice venue.... apart from the hilly bits!!

£5 to park, so made this event expensive. Goody bag is always very poor from these organisers - medal, water and revolting corn snacks.

An alternative to the corn snacks really should be available.
