This is a very well organised and enjoyable race. The course is hilly and challenging, but the marshalling was first class and the scenery and surroundings are beautiful. Great atmosphere before and after the race and a lovely setting. Only issues I had were level of traffic, including speeding cyclists, on part of the route and some portaloos to supplement the venue toilets would be great. Overall though, a really enjoyable race that is well worth doing.

Always a great event, always really hot, would love to we this course in autumn/winter. On a negative note, although audience participation is great and appreciated, not sure why the guy in the Mitsubishi pick up has to drive the whole route in a pick up that could do with a service spitting out diesel fumes.

Parking was fine, but toilets were not good - not enough for all runners and cubicles were either blocked or had no toilet roll. Other than that, the course, helpers and event itself was great.

Fantastic and well organised event with amazing support from the marshals around the course from start to finish. A beautiful route with lovely scenery which is well rewarded after some rather unsuspecting hills but a fun challenge nonetheless. Will definitely return next year, huge thanks to the sponsors and marshals for such a well organised day.

The only thing I would change about this amazing event, is to have the start earlier than 10:30am. A 9am or even 9:30am, would allow for runners to run before it gets even hotter towards midday. Also, very cheekily, but maybe we could run it in reverse one year so we can run up t...

Also, very cheekily, but maybe we could run it in reverse one year so we can run up the easier big hill and down the harder one 馃ぃ

Because of the time of year this event takes place. I feel an earlier start would be beneficial? As it鈥檚 a tough 10k because of the hills? Starting at 10.30 is not very good? Also it was well over 20 degrees. As another runner collapsed just before the finish corner through exhaustion? Assisted by my partner Emma Jenkins who alerted a course marshal who then summoned a first aider.

My daughter took part in the 1k today however it was rather unorganised. I was sent an email a few days prior with a start time of 10:10. We arrived at 9:45 and began to settle in, we then checked in at 10am where we were told the race had already started ?! I showed a female member of staff my email and she was very apologetic (she was so lovely and kind to myself and daughter who became quite upset) This lady went above and beyond and took my daughter once around the field so she still felt like she was apart of it. I have also marked safety down to poor due to the fact there were no road closures and people are expected to run down country lanes with vehicles. Compared to other runs we have done (race for life, where roads are closed) this event did feel rather unorganised and needs to be better risk assessed in the future.

Thank you for your feedback. There are two race start times for the kids race which is split according to age but I am so glad that your daughter was able to enjoy her race in the end and it's lovely that you met our RD who was able to ensure that she didn't miss her race and also received her medal and haribo. In regards to the road closures, I am happy to assure you that the race is fully risk assessed. The race is licensed under England Athletics and, in order to obtain this licence we must ensure that we are fully compliant with their rules and regulations, especially in regards to road safety. This includes ensuring that there are 'Caution: Runners on Road' signage put up both on the course and on the roads and junctions leading into the course, many of which race participants would not see. We also have marshals placed in key and strategic positions to help slow traffic and guide runners safely. I do hope that this helps to reassure you of our compliance with official rules and the level of organisation that goes into keeping our runners safe throughout the race. Nothing is more important that that! We hope to see you again next year!
