Another fabulous event from Big Bear. Everything about it gets 5 stars from me, from good communication before the event, relaxed feel, friendly and supportive team and runners on the day, through to the finish and choice of glow in the dark medal or eco friendly seed one. Best food station ever too. One of the best things for me was feeling safe running through woods in the dark, I wouldn't feel confident to do that alone. Overall, faultless.

Great event, really enjoyed it. Not too crowded, just perfect. When compared to the road runs, at least this time around I have made some friends!

Venue is great. Grades are tougher than expected but add to character. Pretty in the woods at night. Sunset on hill top also lovely. Staff superb. Facilities ample. Everyone friendly running together at all levels. Very fun Friday night. Thanks.

I'd never done a timed event before and frankly, I wondered if it could be a bit boring running round in loops for hours....but I was so wrong!!! It was ACE! I got into my groove and really found the rhythm of the laps enjoyable and the challenge of thinking okay, I'll do one more....oh and okay, one more - just keep going. The evening was excellent - great route(hills weren't fun though!), well marked, super friendly staff, and brilliant communication about the event beforehand, and follow up too. Love the way everyone's names were called out as you loop around the startline time after time. So encouraging and personal. Overall a fab night. If you've not done something like this before, give it a whirl. Try out Big Bear too - you won't be disappointed 😊

The care and attention that goes into these events makes them a joy to be part of. They are highly recommended. They set the bar very high for others to measure themselves against. Inclusive, friendly, great people. Just brilliant. Well done. And the medal. I didn't realise until I got home, it glows in the dark 😀
