Honestly does seem mad to some to do 7 laps as the course (half marathon) but the big trees and lack of hills means you can really zone out and do well

My first 10k race and I got a PB! It's a beautiful flat park. I'd do this run again, but not for HM, as it can get repetitive and I'd probably lose track of how many I've done.

Really fun morning. Great atmosphere. Very friendly and not intimidating at all. Very easy to collect race number on the day. I know Victoria park well and it can be tricky running here even solo as it gets so busy. But Marshals handled it well. Already signed up for next month!

This was my first race ever.
It was a truly incredible experience.

The vibes were amazing and I got to beat my goal of sub60 10K… finishing in 53.49.

Congrats to the organisers and everyone that participated.
Thank you

Lovely event (I did the 10k). Well organised and friendly. Decent route for a pb. Three laps so if you don’t like laps it might not be for you - but they are scenic laps of this very nice park. Mile/km markers are not that helpful given that three different distances were being run and laps are also involved, so best to keep count of your own laps and/ or keep an eye on your watch.

A well organised race on a great route and it started on time, cannot fault organisers at all so thank you! The one downside was that two runners near me at one point almost came to blows as one spat near the other one. They then proceeded to trade insults and be aggressive to one another before one ran off. Just unnecessary as the running community is usually friendly and positive overall...(no fault of the organisers).

My first official half marathon which was extremely though in the heat but this event was so well organised. The event team scattered around the route offering support and encouragement. Water station well stocked and also included gels. Will definitely do this again but don’t in the summer.
