Amazing event that is so incredibly well organised and managed. The person who replies to emails is so patient and fast, the whole organisation really ia top notch. You can tell this event means so much to the village as a whole by the volume of supporters ad marshals

First and foremost, as this was my first time at the Barns Green Half Marathon - this event was impressively well-organised. We arrived early and there was zero confusion as to where to park, the parking marshalls were exemplary and on it from the beginning! The event also has a great choice of vendors with coffee vans, crepes, pizza, burgers - although I'd have loved some pasta if that's a tip for next year! The course is definitely hilly not "undulating" so be prepared! Even though I knew this - some of the hills in the first half especially seemed to keep on coming! However, the logistics, plenty of marshalls on the course and the general atmosphere was great - you can see it brings all the surrounding villages together. If you have kids there is also another event for them - so the organises have thought of everything. There was regular water on the course but perhaps a bit too much of a gap after the second water stop - I missed that one as it was a bit short in length and had to carry on running past it. However, all in all a great event.

Fantastic and extremely well organized event. Loads of helpful volunteers, closed roads, pacers, clear instructions for everything, serious for competitive types and friendly for first timers. I was soooo impressed with it thank you! And raising money for charity.

Excellent from pre-event to the finish - could not fault the organisation especially as they are volunteers - better than some professional events
