My main issue is that we are paying for an event that costs £30 to enter which hopefully most money goes to charity but then asked £31 to pay for photos (which would promote the event) which goes to the company timing the event. My bib wasn’t sent out in time so never arrived, I know others in the same boat, surely the cost can be reduced, the photos have already been taken and then the event gets promoted more to others. I would rather pay £10 more entry and get guaranteed photos than £61 overall for entry and photos, that’s is not fair for the consumer or the charity

Not allowing at least one free photo is a big disappointment, photos should not be made for profit, or at least kids photos to be free, also another water station would be very good as one station at 6k is really hard especially for the new runners. Apart from those, it's been fantastic day!

Unfortunately, my experience at this race was seriously marred by an incident of unacceptable behaviour. During the race, I was deliberately shoved forcefully in the back with both hands by a male runner. I couldn’t see a marshal nearby to report the incident to at the time. I reported what happened to the organisers afterwards, but I was disappointed by their response. Although they apologised and referred to their zero-tolerance policy, they suggested there was little they could do unless the incident had been caught on camera, as the runner could simply deny it. I felt there was little practical support offered or indication that they would try to investigate the incident. As a woman taking part in a race, it was upsetting to experience this behaviour and disappointing not to feel that my report was being meaningfully acted upon. On a more basic organisational note, there was also no toilet paper in the women’s toilets. It’s a shame that these issues overshadowed the race itself. I would have hoped for better support and a more proactive response to a report of potentially dangerous behaviour from another participant.

Great event - first 10k race and couldn't fault it. Excellently organised, and the course handled a large number of runners despite it being a very busy day. Well signposted, flat and fast route through the middle of Cambridge.

Loved every moment of this event! Super organisation from application to receiving finishing time minutes after completing the run. Great atmosphere around the course. Will take part again.

Great atmosphere and well organised, nice route. Great for those who don't want something as full on as a half marathon and less congested. There was plenty of water available but with a hosepipe ban did we really need a hosepipe cooling runners on a 10k in October? Plenty of drinks at the end but mine was out of date by 4 months. However I applied for 2027 straight after the event and would highly recommend
