Excellent, friendly, low-key event in a great location

I've been entering this for 20 years or so and I still can't catch the quickest VM70 runners, in which category I now find myself. Great run, great people, thanks to all involved.

Always a good way to come to close one month and start the next

Thank you to all the wonderful volunteers who make this event so welcoming and friendly - even when you are at the back like I am. Especially Bev for taking care of safety pins and numbers what ever the weather.

This is probably the best 5K race around would 100% recommend it the race to do if you're in London been running in it for 40 + years on and off

Fast course, could run with people my pace (19:11), had fun! Very scenic, I enjoyed the 2 laps and the 1km marks.

It is a very good value for money event run by one of the oldest established running clubs in London

It's very inclusive despite all of the club runners it is wonderfully supported by the volunteers and marshalls. Better value and experience than most larger events
