Having people along the route cheering you on the drummers were great. I didn’t think much could be improved. One observation would be that one of our party of runners backed out because of the heat they were concerned for their health if they attended. When it was clear it was going to be very hot could there have been an offer where they could attend another event Instead ?. Personally I thought it was a fantastic event and is me comment in no was a criticism just a observation.

Great event, extra drink station added due to the extreme heat. Good entry price. Nice quality medal. Lots of friendly Marshall’s. Fun event.

Hi Becky! Thank you for your lovely feedback. We're delighted to hear that you enjoyed the event and felt supported throughout the day. The extreme heat certainly created some challenging conditions, so we're pleased that the additional water station was appreciated. It's also great to know that you felt the event offered good value, enjoyed the quality of the finisher medal, and found our marshals to be friendly and encouraging. Our volunteers and event team play a huge part in creating the atmosphere on the day, and your comments mean a lot to them. Thank you for being part of the Exeter 10K River Run, and we hope to see you on the start line again next year.

Really well organised event with clear route and KM markers throughout. Would have been nice to have put comes out on the industrial estate as had to run around parked cars which wasn’t ideal. The Marshalls were all fab and the music point was really helpful. It was a really hot day and whilst the additional water point was definitely needed it was a shame the cups were so small and the water had gone warm by the time we got there. The finish was clear and a lovely atmosphere and scenic run for the majority of the course but again the water bottle at the finish was warm which was such a shame as if they had been put out a little later they may have still been cold (they were out on the table at around 4pm before the race, possibly longer). Lovely little finisher medal Would definitely do this race again

Hi Amelia, Thank you for taking the time to leave such a detailed review. We're really pleased to hear that you enjoyed the event, particularly the organisation, route signage, marshals, music point, atmosphere and finisher medal. It's great to know you would consider taking part again. We also appreciate your constructive feedback. The section through the industrial estate is something we will review with our event team to see whether additional cones or traffic management measures could improve the runner experience and reduce the need to navigate around parked vehicles. We will also look into an alternative route that would avoid this section altogether. The exceptionally warm conditions on the day certainly presented some challenges, and we're grateful for your comments regarding the water stations. While we introduced an additional water point to help runners cope with the heat, we recognise that the cup size and temperature of the water could have been better. Your feedback about the finish-line bottles being placed out too early is particularly helpful and is something we will review as part of our event planning for future races. Thank you again for your support and for sharing your experience. We hope to welcome you back to the Exeter 10K River Run again next year.

It was a shame that a race called the River Run wasn't by the river but instead was run down a busy main road, through a light industrial estate and then through a residential area with traffic. It was a really hot day & there was only one water station & the traffic from the main road made it quite dusty. There wasn't any music or much atmosphere (except at the finish) & at one point I wondered if we'd got lost there was so little signing. It is now several days after the race & there are still no published results & there is no info as to when they'll be out! Come on guys - could do better! :)

Enjoyable race with a great atmosphere and decent pre race organisation. Race briefing started 15 minutes before the race and was quite a distance from the finish/ main area. The water station was poor, however. It was an awfully hot day (not organised fault), but there should've been a water station earlier than 7km. The table was tiny, which caused many to stop and create a bottleneck. The water was also very warm. Medal was good and for the price can't complain too much, although as no roads were closed, it was a route you could do on your own accord (although not sure I'll be running around Marsh Barton industrial estate for fun again).
