Good running event with simple registration and not overcrowded. A warm-up would have been fun but not the end of the world. Well marked course altbough pacers slightly confusing due to multiple laps and race lengths. Water and energy sachets offered twice on the 10k.

Very well organised event. Lots of marshalls and people available to answer questions. Very good direction markers. Lots of snacks and water provided throughout even when the field thinned and there were only a few of us on the route. Lovely medal and the team were still hyping finishers with only a few runners to go. Very inclusive. All paths so no issues with mud. Lots of bins for rubbish. A few food and coffee businesses were also set up and as we lapped round, there was loads to keep spectators busy and warm while we ran. Really impressed with this race, I'll definitely look at their other races.

Great, well organised event. Being my first ever event I was very impressed. I was disappointed that the medal was made from wood and nothing like those on the adverts for the event.

This was a great event and I was on track for a very good race till I did something to my hamstring. Nice mix of flat and a gentle climb up a hill. Marshals were amazing and checked on me as I did my last 3 laps with a limp. Will do it again next year.
