Nice views
Parking was just shocking. I gave myself plenty of time to park and collect my number however was still looking for a parking place at 08.40. Maybe a parking full sign would of been helpful at the 1st & 2nd main car parks that maybe would of stopped any confusion and queues
It made getting to start quite stressful. Bring back the old days of the old route and headquarters. I would think twice about doing the race again for this reason. Which is a shame as I have always enjoyed this run. However great medal.
Thank you for your comments. We agree that parking was not as good as it should have been and will be making changes to upgrade this for 2027.

Not an easy one but beautiful route, superb HQ and very well organised.
Big thank you to the amazing marshals!
I look forward to next year!
Byron Mills
Well organised, challenging route.

Undulating
Overall event was great! Organisation was top notch with closed roads and loads of marshalls to help direct and cheer on fatigued participants - very useful when stationed at the top of hills, of which there were a few. Wouldn't recommend as a 1st time 10 mile event for this reason.
More toilets would have been beneficial at start/finish and possibly a couple mid-course - a witnessed a few runners leaving the course due to being caught short.
On the whole, a very enjoyable day.
Thank you for organising!!!
Thank you for your comments. The toilets will be increased and improved for 2027.
Jacques Barnard
Very enjoyable run
Rachael Turner
Really great event with happy and exciting atmosphere
Lots of hills, varied route and plenty of water. Friendly marshalls and well marked route. A few more snacks at finish would be welcome! And better parking provision as lots of people were late struggling to find a space. Louder speaker also needed for start announcements! But overall will highly recommend and return next year. Thank you!
Vicky Tween
Great atmosphere, hilly!
Stuart Heaver
Friendly and well organised
Please modify the course to avoid running around the campus on the home straight.
Thank you for your comments. We will be improving the part of the run that goes through the campus.
Alex Holmes
Challenging but enjoyable. Great season starter.
Parking was a bit of a nightmare and the toilet queue was epic! We left home at 7 and nearly missed the start.
Thank you for your comments. Both toilets and parking will be upgraded for 2027.
Karen Azodoh
A very enjoyable day
Quite hilly but the scenery makes up for it
Gemma Mann

Tally Yoh
Great loop
Charlie Boyce
An excellent race. Would recommend.
Owen Kemp
Great event, challenging new route.
Really liked the new course albeit probably preferred the old, but that was likely familiarity!
Parking - may I suggest that next year marshals direct drivers to the furthest parking first, rather than leaving them to fill up as they go? The theory being that delays were likely caused by people parking and inadvertently blocking passage through the car park!
Other than this, a great event. Thank you.
Thank you for your comments. We will be upgrading the parking for 2027
Michelle Elvidge
Great 10 mile race
A great route with some easy & tough sections, amazing water stations helpers and marshals and a super medal with route on the back!
Michael Boyd
Great race.
Very well organised, marshalled with a new improved route. There was nothing to fault.
My only negative comment would be the lack of loos. But to be fair without hiring in some urinals, it would be hard for you to change this.
Thanks for a great race.
Thank you for your comments. We will be upgrading the toilets and hiring in portaloos for 2027
miguel capo
Nice to run without cars and very nice route
Will do it again and I believe is a good new route
Wendy Barker

Craig L’fakir
Always a great race.
Last water station could have been a bit sooner. Last little switch back was annoying at the end of the race.
Thank you for your comments. We will be losing the out and back running around the cone for 2027.
