Fantastic well organised event!

Really enjoyed this event, very well organised, fantastic marshals around the route, great atmosphere in general. Would suggest more cup bins a bit further along the route to avoid having to actually stop and also on registration the text details on reverse of race numbers was too small and difficult to read. Such a good event at any time of the year!

Great 10km race — really well organised. The marshals were very supportive, there was plenty of parking, an excellent medal, and a lovely route. I’ll certainly be recommending this.

Really well organised, friendly marshals, great medal, the electrolytes were nice as well !! Course was good, a bit slippy in places, may not have been suitable if there was ice present, would make a nice spring event

A really well organised and interesting event, I look forward to this event becoming a regular maybe even a summer version too?

A very simple experience from start to finish.

The only thing I would suggest would be a couple of additional bins after the feed station at maybe 50 and 100 mtrs so that runners could grab and keep running and then dispose of.
Overall my experience was excellent from parking up, registration, marshals, route and an excellent medal. I’ll definitely be back and would reti friends and family.
Well done.

A Brilliant Flat Terrain race with great views.

Great starting line, plenty of space to get warm ups in.

We good day,

I think there should have been more organisations at the beginning of the race, warm up, people leaving at different times in the race as it was a little overwhelming as a slow running and felt like I had to keep up, I know it can’t be helped but when people were leaving they was getting stuck in the mud and people pushing in the que to leave,
However I think the actual atmosphere was amazing and so was the marshals on the way away around were good an encouraging and checking when people was walking if they was okay, And the dj man at the end cheering everyone on who ran through saying names and numbers was very encouraging and a bit emotional and really enjoyed the day and the actual run was a really nice track even though there was cars driving past I didn’t feel dangerous and worrying that they was there

A very good event for the first one

Questioning the timing results - I ran with my friend the entire race crossing the start and finish line at the same time yet our finish times occurring to the official results are very different.

Lovely route, marshals, scenery, medal, organisation from entrance, parking, bag drop, toilets, marshals

Felt safe in the roads, great marshalling and set up! It was lovely to see inside red brick barn too, never been, understand it’s a wedding venue? And you have trains there? Would like to have seen some leaflets on what you have to offer. Hopefully you will do another one?

Great first event, well organised and good fun for all

The parking area was a bit wet with some cars struggling on the grass, but otherwise really well done

Decent cut off time.

As our first 10k, and being older, not fast runners, it was nice having a decent ‘cut off’ time of two hours.
We appreciate it is harder for the marshals who want to get home, but for us slower runners it nice to be able to take part without the fear of not being able to complete the run.
Yes, we came in last, but felt supported by the marshals and the finish team.
Please don’t reduce the cut off time next year to 90 minutes……

A success from start to finish. Brilliant event.

An absolutely brilliant run. From the start we were directed for parking and there was plenty of room to park. Picking up our numbers was easy and methodically done, no queuing at all. The start line was not manic or everybody shoving. The course was fabulous, a mixture of a bit of trail and road. Marshalls a plenty to direct you. A brilliant atmosphere with some nice little treats at the end. The coffee van was a fabulous touch too. Fantastic organisation from the team.

Will definitely be doing it next year.

Well run, could do with another food outlet, as long waits

Marshalls were very incouranging, all the way round which was a boost
