Lovely run, well organised, well supported, and I came first in my age category! What’s not to like?

Good!

The toilets every 8 miles was a bit too long however they were cleaned after the initial start which was appreciated. Small bottles of water would have been better than cups or a bit of lucozade for the longer distances. The last 4 miles of the 20 seemed to be very windy/never ending! I’ve done many of these and i enjoyed it as always. Goodies at the end were good!

Great flat course and very well organised

In previous years this was a big event as it was a month ahead of London marathon and entrants used it as part of their training programme. This year it wasn’t so busy as marathon is in September but very well organised

Just a wonderful friendly and well marshalled event

This is such a great event - with such a variety of abilities - it’s also got a great choice of pacer times (although I would have also liked an official pacer for 9mm30sec mile pace - just being demanding!) …. There were so many Marshall’s throughout the course that I felt really safe and the signage was excellent. Loved it! And the free photos was the icing on the cake too.

Good race, nice for a beginner

This is the second time I have done this race and last time (5 years ago) I did the 20 mile race while preparing for my first marathon. It's a good race, well organised and I especially appreciate that there are pacers. The one thing I would say is - it would help if there were toilets on the course, perhaps halfway around. Some runners were not able to use the toilets before starting and 8 miles to reach the start/finish area where the toilets are is quite far.
