Well organised, super friendly, clear directions for a first timer and great facilities.

Not a flat course and due to weather was super slippery, but that added to the challenge.
Thanks everyone - Merry Christmas

Loved my first run with Zig Zag

Such great organisation, everyone was so friendly and helpful. Loved it. Tea and cake topped it off nicely. The loops made a half marathon less intimidating too. Will definitely book up again.

Well worth a go if you are thinking about it

Would be improved with some distance markers on the laps.

Marshalls were super friendly, staff on the main stall and in the registration hut were too.

Friendly, very well run event- thank you.

First time I’ve done one of these and I was extremely impressed. Well organised, hassle free and a friendly, helpful team. Great route and the marshals were fantastic. Brilliant medal ( definitely no scrimping there!) , great selection of goodies for during the race and coffee and cake was outstanding!
I appreciate that you can’t “mile mark” due to the varying distances being run, but would it be possible to have a single “1km to the start line” marker towards the end? Would save my poor mental maths - especially with the “ bonus distance “ on each lap

Very well organised. Everyone was so friendly and encouraging. It was our first ever zigzag event and will definitely not be our last. Brilliant.

Enjoyable final event of the year

Would have enjoyed a seamless continuation of distance if you feel up to it, carry on within the time. I carried on but with zero data

Great event.

It would be nice to have more trail off road running as running on hard ground caines the legs. Well organised great staff had a great day!

My first ZigZag event and I would not hesitate to enter more of the events in the future.
Every aspect of the event was first rate.
Many thanks to the ZigZag team and all the volunteers

Enjoyable race, good medal

My first Zig Zag event (i think!). Enjoyed the route and was an easy event logistically (little faff). Very good events for beginner / slower runners i think. Definitely felt like there was no pressure, which is nice. Good coffee and cake afterwards and a decent medal too. So many local races scrimp on medals, but for many of us, it's an important part of an event.

The best in the business.

Fantastic races organised by the best in the business. It is very clear to see that Zig zag work incredibly hard to make sure their events are welcoming, run smoothly, and fun for runners of all abilities. The events take place at some beautiful locations, easy to get to with good parking and facilities. Brilliant marshals, well signed routes and a fab race-day experience. Highly recommended!

The Best!!!

Zoe, Steve, Martin. Emily all the Marshalls and the whole Zig Zag family should be incredibly proud of what they have all achieved in 2024.
And this event was a perfect way to end a wonderful year of running with just really, really good people.
Have a well deserved rest and in 2025: We go again!
