Slight gripe about the weird 'no bicycles in the car-park' rule, seemingly via dictat from Maclaren. Silly and unnecessary inconvenience for cyclists, as it meant dragging bike through densely wooded, brambly public footpath. I hope Maclaren rethinks this petty and retrograde rule next year. We need to make it really convenient to cycle to these things!

Overall I thought the event was really well organised from parking venue to runners village.
The marshals were excellent and the course was well laid out. Possibly there could have been more distance markers but with most runners having Garmin watches this may well not be necessary.

Shame McLarens don’t allow cyclists to enter via the road - not cycle friendly for those runners not wanting to drive to the event

Thanks to the very many volunteers

I had a great time at my first Martian Race. The route was very flat for a trail race but still scenic, all the marshals were so friendly and supportive on the way round, and there were plenty of water stops in the blazing heat. Would highly recommend and will likely be back again in future!

Big whoop to the organisers, and the marshalls all the way around. I took a tumble and scratched my legs and they could not be more helpful and considerate all the way around. Always checking on me and offering extra water.

The terrain is wonderful too! Made it so much fun running through the woods. It was such a happy race. I would definitely do it again.

The race was my first and I appreciated the fact that it wasn't overcrowded. The instructions (emailed beforehand) were clear and the event ran to time. I had not expected to get a medal or my time, so was delighted with both! Friendly, supportive marshals. A really positive experience.

It would be great to have some degree of entertainment for families who come to support, as they're on site for 1hr on average whilst runners are completing the race.

Keep the friendly and welcoming atmosphere. This is what makes you unique and stand out!!

The marshalls at the event and in particular around the course were absolutely amazing, so encouraging and friendly. It really spurred you on to keep going. Absolutely loved it and will definitely do it again.

Would be nice to have the year of the race on medals and t-shirts.

Really enjoyed this year's Martian Run, well organised. The helpful and friendly volunteers, they did a great job, a big shout out to them all.
Although it being quite a challenging run with the heat and the route it was still very enjoyable and fun.

Great fun event

Hope to come again next year

My 4 year old did his first 2k and he loved the experience. Everyone was friendly and the organisation was amazin. Well done to everyone organising! We will definetely reguster for next year.
