Excellently run with good support. Presentations at the end would have been nice. E certificates for age category winners should have the date and finishing time on them.

Great course and perfect weather today. The route is stunning. Shame that spectators are few and far between. Most cyclists on the trail were respectful of the runners.

This was a well organised event. The communication was great prior to the event and all went smoothly. All the marshals were very encouraging and the finishers medal is good quality and well designed. Will be back next year.

The organisation of this event was great. I got on a bus within a couple of minutes arriving at the leisure centre just before 9. There was time at the start for a nervous wee (plenty of loos) and a warm up before the start. There were three drink stops with fizzy and Jaffa cakes on the 2nd and 3rd stops as well as water. The mile signs were slightly out according to my Garmin so I was worried that it wasn’t going to be the full half so was well pleased to find that it was slightly over. A well organised event. Recommended.

Absolutely loved this event! The scenes were epic, as much as its net down hill you still had to work. Think this might be one of my fave half marathons & will be back next year!

This was my first HM and I’m glad I chose this one. It was well organised, particularly considering the logistics of getting everyone to the start on time. It was a beautiful day and the scenery was spectacular. Thank you.

The event was great, perfect conditions. I would probably notify competitors that it would be possible to wear old clothing to discard at the start area in the pre race instructions. Might reduce the plastic bags.

First did this 10 years ago and great to see how popular this has become. Staff everywhere and on the water stations were super friendly and enough water and goodies to keep us going. Plenty of toilets and not much of queue at the start either. Can't fault anything and will ...
