Another great event, I have done 30+ Big Bears so that should tell you how good they are!! Friendly, well organised and the best aid station ever!! Don't take my word for it, enter and see for yourself.

This event is lovely and scenic with 3.3 miles laps. The event team are super friendly and helpful with great support each time you complete a lap. The aid station is very well stocked and the the medal at the end is awesome 馃ぉ.

Another great Big Bear event. This year I did the Rhino Challenge dogless as I'm training for my first marathon. Clear instructions, signage, car parking and pre-race briefing all sent through on email and with videos to watch beforehand. Paul really has thought of everything to support those new to the area and Big Bear Events. The volunteers are amazing, as always, and the photographer did a fab job again of capturing us all. I love the whole ethos of Big Bear Events. Today I had already decided I was only going to do two laps since I had raced a half marathon only 48hrs prior to this morning so instead I incorporated my progression run into two laps of the Rhino Challenge. There was no judgement at all on me only doing two laps and I love that I can turn up, do the laps I want to and still get a medal, flapjack and drink for my efforts. This really is a lovely event and venue for newbies and seasoned runners alike. Thank you, Paul. See you at the next one :-)

One of the most organised, efficient and inclusive events around. No better bling, goodies and fuel station ever. Supportive and as challenging as you want. Once again a fantastic event in a amazing venue. Excellent value for money and great on weekdays. Thank you

I had a fantastic time today, the hardest part was choosing what to eat as there were too many nice things! Normally I'm quite anxious before an event, but the communication was great and took the approach that I only had to do 'one more lap' each time I got to the end, which helped me run further than I ever have before. My 'swag' was great!

Another solid Big bear event, I will be doing more this year. Lovely enthusiasm from the helpers, including when I ran the longest distance I ever have at one of these events. Lovely grub too, including flapjack for the drive home. Delightful.
