Very slick

Very well run event. Great sports hall for registration and bag drop. Well signed and marshalled.

A beautiful stroll through the countryside

Tunbridge Wells is a HM like no other, on account of its wonderfully bucolic views and "special surprise" immediately after the halfway point. I won't ruin it, but let's just say that you'll never look at Fordcomb in the same way again. A superb event that any runner would want to try.

Well organised and very well marshalled

Challenging course with some hard hills. Very well organised and marshalled plus some good support on the route
Shame you no longer get a free t shirt and just a cheap wooden medal for the price

It's been a few years since i last ran this race but still a great event

The traffic management in the final mile needs improving. Only a narrow section of road cordoned off by cones, so little room to pass other runners, and i had to run in traffic or on the pavement.

A staple race i do every year

This year like all other years i have run it was well organised and a tough undulating course. Only difference this year which could be improved on is this was the 1st ywar they didnt do a free tshirt included and the medal was wooden this year, i prefer the metal medals, so it just felt a bit like cost cutting this year but those cost cuts were not passed onto the runners
