I don't want any memorabilia incl buffs, medals or t-shirts. I'd have appreciated being able to car share (although I did attempt to share with 3 runners) Taking own cup was a great idea I wasn't clear if paper plates or food wasteà etc were actually recycled

Absolutely love Cragg Runner events and would happily recommend to anyone! Brilliant day out! The organisation was spot on - no queues for registration / kit check, great location for start / finish (warm shower at the end was hugely appreciated before a 2 hour drive home!). The route is beautiful - very glad to get to do the Alphin diversion instead of the road finish this year....I think a lot of people would be happy if you could work some magic with the landowners and see if that could be a permanent change to the route! Aid stations - I would come back just for the Jaffa cakes!! But the rest of the aid station food was great too - lots of choice - savoury & sweet. Barely touched any of my own food that I carried around for 26 miles!!! Very helpful volunteers too. And the pie and peas went down well at the end too! Thanks for a great day out & will be back for more! (just a shame we're not more local to be able to do some more of your smaller events).

Brilliant RO and team, super helpful. Interesting route, great CPs and staff. Lovely trophy and like that its eco with not giving a medal to all or a T shirt unless ordered. No disposable cups we take our own. Wonderful meal at the end in comfortable race HQ

Another brilliant race from Darren and the Craggrunner team, thank you. The route was amazing - scenic, challenging, a mix of terrains, perfect weather, supportive Marshalls, great check points with lots of sweets and drinks - what more do we need? I got lost a few times, due to my poor navigational skills, but it didn’t matter. Loved it. Cheese pie at the end was great and a huge thank you to the people who found my car key and the medic who returned it. Very grateful xx
