Great atmosphere and support the whole way around

Really great atmosphere and support the whole way around. Starting and ending in the centre was really good organisation. A couple of free snacks at the end would have been nice, as most races usually have some sort of energy bar or sweets to dig into. Not entirely convinced the chip times were correct. They seem a bit off by 60 seconds - especially if you look through results and see how many had the same gun and chip time throughout the pack.

Hello, Thanks for all of your kind words - We are all so pleased to hear you enjoyed the event! Some great feedback and something we are looking to improve on next year. The chip to chip timing has now been resolved and you'll be able to see this clearly in the results now. Thanks again and we hope to see you in 2027 Alex, Dan & Dave.

A very enjoyable event, well organised with fantastic support around the course

Could possibly benefit from a bit better traffic management around the course.

Great overall, friendly atmosphere, good support, nice course and race village.

Only real issue were cars on the road. Would be good to have properly closed roads. The start was a bit confusing for some people. A goody bag would be nice too but there was lots of good food etc. available nearby. Altogether a great event, and lucky with the weather! Probaby see you next year!

Quality

This was my first organised event and ive got to say from registering to the finish line it was great, the marshals were fab, the route challenged everyone and the turn out was great. My only gripe is the possision of the water station in bradford-on-tone at the narrow bridge, everyone pausing and large numbers trying to fit over the bridge as well as two way traffic caused a lot of chaos

Really enjoyed it marshals and crew were brilliant

Chip timing seems to be out as I was 2 minutes slower than my watch. Needed more bins for plastic cups hated throwing them on the floor. Waterstop by the small bridge was a bit dangerous in my opinion but on the whole a brilliant event thank you

Well organised , great atmosphere

I though this was a great event the finish was amazing. marshals , course , medal , race village , number collection and bag drop all really good.

The only things I would suggest that could help but by no means is a criticism.

1. have more railings at the start to keep people on the road we had to wait on the pavement at the start wasn't the end of the world though.
2.After the water stations have a few large bins for the cups , i felt bad dropping them on the floor for someone to pick up.

See you next year.

Hard run with a few steeper hills.

Thoroughly enjoyed the run, but it was hard especially as I am an older runner. Start and finish locations are better than the previous runs before Covid.
