Ok
Need portaloos, 6 blokes toilets was clearly inadequate and long stressful queue. Not checking id or registration meant picking up numbers was way better than last year. Do think checking numbers for those picking up bags would be good for security though. Also car park, have people fill up furthest places first otherwise they hold up everyone else trying to get in. Need another car park as queues were very long.
Thank you for your comments. We tried to cover all bases with our new course and HQ. Toilets will be increased and better marked for 2027. Also, we will be improving the parking experience. Security for bag collection will also be improved.

Great race, great marshals
All good, parking wasn’t great. Got sent down a row to park in, told there was spaces but none left and then was a dead end so had to reverse out. Took up a bit of time and then was a rush to get to the start line on time
Thank you for your comments and apologies regarding parking. This will be upgraded for 2027

A lovely loop of the surrounding Canterbury countryside
Good facilities provided by the university with fantastic route. Muddy at times but roads well manned and closed for the race duration. A large loop route with great scenery and minimal repetition. Lots of runners meant for a great buzz throughout the race but car parking took a lot of time and there didn't seem to be enough available to facilitate everyone. Race could have done with a few more Marshalls dedicated to directing traffic and utilising all University Parking without inspectors around.
Thank you for your comments. Parking will be improved for 2027.

My best run yet!!!!
The one I done last year in 2025 I remember a massive gruelling hill which I was bracing myself for this year. Then the course change. That was my first ever race after just taking up running an I really wanted to revisit to see how far I had really come. However that being said I really enjoyed this course and heard other runners say how hilly it was so maybe it was just as challenging.

Well organised, well signed, lots of supportive marshalls around the course. Really enjoyable atmosphere
Jackie Edwards
Loved it
It is a good challenging beautiful route with equal up and down elevations. Well marshalled and fun at the water stations. The only improvement maybe is markers to help finding the car in the many car parks after.

Toilet
More toilets and took us 30 minutes to get into the car park, but a great run.
Thank you for your comments. We will be making improvements to both the parking and toilets for 2027.

Hardish Garg
The new route was good. Well organised with picking up race numbers.
The only issue was car parking by getting turned down and eventually found a space.
Thank you for your comments. We will be improving the parking experience for 2027.
Julie Williams
Very well organised, enjoyed the new course, great marshals.
I got there early (7.30) but those arriving later seemed to struggle with parking queues and toilet queues.
Thank you for your comments. Toilets and parking will both be improved for 2027
Mark Biddis
Very undulating
Need more toilet's due to the number of participants.
Brilliant marshalls and support along route.
Thank you for your comments. Toilets will be increased with better signage for 2027.
Katherine James
Challenging, mixed terrain course with a good medal and snack at the finish.
Not sure there were enough loo facilities for men or women in the venue. Registration and baggage were well organised, as was parking. Marshalling was efficient and the finish had a nice atmosphere. Well done on organising a great event.
Claire Hallett
Great race
Great race challenging on the hills, maybe some more signage for toilets that weren't in the main building would be an idea. Possibly along the route some bins so you could dispose gels/bottles
Thank you for your comments. Toilet signage and additional toilets will be in place for 2027. We will also look at getting bins out on the route.
