It was a well organised event. Plenty of marshalls and plenty of room for supporters in the town making the atmosphere pre race great. There were also lots of supporters out on the route.

The start was a bit crowded and the PA system was poor.

Great event

So good that the race has been reinstated with a new team managing the event. Great for Taunton and combining it with the Farmers Market worked really well.

Greta race vibe, undulations not to be underestimated but super support the whole way round.

Best marshalled half I’ve ever done, every one of them was brilliant.

Amazing atmosphere!

Such a great event and I loved it.
Just a couple of little, small things which might not be possible to change. The start was a little chaotic. Maybe people could be called to the start line gradually? Or have predicted finish time pens?
The race timings also seem a little inconsistent between the time in website and the clock at the finish line.
Overall a FAB event and I will enter again! Thank you for all your hard work bringing the race back to Taunton.

Great run thank you to all the organisers and Marshall's

It was my first half and I was a little confused at the beginning and couldn't hear the instructions that well but apart from that 1000% great run

Very welcoming and friendly.

Great support from the marshals and members of the public. It spurs you on when someone calls your name. A very scenic route, which helped distract you from the 'inclines', It did sadden me to see gel wrappers strewn on the floor, If you can carry them with you full then you can carry the empty wrapper and dispose of it correctly, now someone has to go and pick them up. Also a small number of motorists clearly demonstrated animosity towards runners by drivers too close and too fast. Overall a well organised race, well supported and I enjoyed being a part of it.

A well organised and fun run on a course which was challenging but achievable

Perhaps the start funnel could be wider next year

Great community event creating a buzz about town!

Maybe start runners in waves as a bit bottlenecked getting out of town. Fabulous event well done to the organisers and all involved today it was wonderful!

Very well organised and professional event

The only slight note I would make, which stops this getting very good across the board is the position of one of the aid stations, I think it was the third one. Although the were all very well staffed and stocked, the location of the one right before the narrow bridge did create somewhat of a bottleneck when a car was coming in the other direction. Other than that, I think it was an amazing event and will definitely be back.

Best one yet, thankyou

Everything was so very impressive today compared to the previous years, only down side was not receiving a free T-shirt at the end, shame as the event is definitely worth advertising, many thanks.

Well organised and an energetic vibe.

This event was incredible. It was so well organised. The atmosphere was absolutely electric, not only in the town centre (start / finish) but at every turn of the course. The water stations were perfectly placed, well managed and well stocked. So thankful to every volunteer, the organisers and every cheer that was given.
