Second time doing the Ramathon. Wanted to try this again after doing it as my first half in 2022, and struggling round after not being anything like trained enough. Enjoyed the event in 2025. Run For All always well organised. No real bottlenecks. Plenty of guidance in the run up due to the hot forecast - fortunately, whilst it was very muggy on the day still, the blazing sun that we were fearing didn’t really come out until most runners had finished. Definitely a PB course on a cooler day.

A great race - absolutely pan flat apart from the brutal hill upto the finish. Lovely through Elvaston Catle & the new tarmacced river path is very speedy, just a bit narrow meaning over taking can be difficult. Great organisation at the start - the pacers could be a bit better spaced out and visible as it seemed a lot were all over the place & I got lucky finding mine after about 1km despite not seeing any in the corrals at the start. Plenty of space at the start/finish on the square with plenty of urinals meaning the women can use the cubicles without huge queues - although there was still some. Would highly recomend

A very flat half with a beautiful course running through Elvaston castle country park and woods alongside River Derwent. Well organised from start to finish, cheerful marshals and a lovely event village. Wet sponges and the orchestra towards the end was a nice touch! There were meant to be pacers at 5-minute intervals between 1hr 20mins and 2hrs 30mins but there were literally none to be seen.

Disappointed that there was no one at the end of the races to place medals around your neck and you had to search in your goodie bag to find it

I’m on the slower side, so towards the last 2 miles, I wasn’t 100% sure on the route and not from Derby - just extra marker, sticker, tape - anything, to just help guide me, would have been useful. Either way, I got there in the end and enjoyed the race. Pretty flat and great volunteers - thank you

Where were the pacers? I didn’t see any at the start around me at the 2 hour start position while out on the route.

First time doing the race and I thoroughly enjoyed it. A real mix of scenery and seeing some lovely sites. The bag check in and number collection was super easy,all within 30m of each other. A few points to improve on, at mile 12 we leave a main road onto a footpath. The main road ahead wasn't clearly blocked off and if it wasn't for a runner 50m ahead who knew the route I would have missed it. Speaking to a few runners afterwards they thought the same. Also,at the finish I asked if the medals had a date on them (I was told they did so I took one (would have left it to be used next year if it didnt). When I got home I saw it was on the ribbon only (maybe intentional) but it's worth preparing those handing out incase people like me aren't bothered by the medal. I would recommend the race to friends though.
