Brilliant race as always however the bottle neck at the start was not very good and the toilets had run out of toilet paper during the race so when people had finished the facilities were not stocked, the toilet rolls could have been replaced as we were running

The ‘event village’ was a bit random with at least 3 baggage drops - but eventually found the right one based on race numbers and I guess it helped avoid congestion and the volunteers there were great. Toilet facilities ok. Shame the start was delayed but understood if it was for “safety reasons” as stated over the PA. Agree that the start was too narrow for the amount of runners but no subsequent issues. The course, spectators and volunteers were the stars though - making it a thoroughly enjoyable event. Essentially a long uphill and downhill route equally testing and forgiving.

I’ve entered this race more times that I can count. It’s my favourite route by far. That said I may not enter next year. 2 years on the trot of the same issue and it isn’t safe! The narrowing bottle neck immediately after the start is so dangerous! Tripping over other runners, trying not to fall over yourself. I had to walk twice in the first 500m to avoid. Safety aside if you’re aiming for a PB it’s gone before you’ve really started. SORT IT ! The waiting funnel needs to be the same width if not narrower than the race. Toilets were way better this year though! Thank you! Minor point- there’s colours other than purple for finishers tops! Always great quality though!

Great atmosphere & great crowds. Late to the start due to ridiculous queues at toilets. Some still queueing when race set off. Not enough toilets for size of event. Unable to reach chosen time slot so held up by narrow funnel and slow to get going. Apart from that weather kind and thoroughly enjoyable. See you next year

After 1k I was fully expecting my review to read that I’d had a terrible time at the Sheffield 10K. 10 minutes late starting, ridiculous bottle neck for the first 3-400m meaning runners falling over each other, and first 1-1.5k clogged up with runners who were walking the route with a friend (despite them starting in the sun 50-55 min pens). However, after this, the experience became much much better and ended up being one of the most enjoyable 10ks I’ve done. Really really interesting route. Some good challenging hills - without being too challenging. Very fun downhill sections with great views of the city. Don’t think I’ve seen any more spectators for a 10K event outside of London/Manchester/Birmingham. Run For All medals always great. Seabrook ready salted crisps that you get given afterwards easily the best post run snack. Next year please just make the barriers wider at the start (there is so much room to do this) and remind people of the chaos that they cause when they start in a pen that is much faster than they intend to run.

This is the 3rd time I've entered this event. There was possibly a thousand more competitors this year than in 2022 but for some reason the organisers decided to narrow the start to a point where it wasn't safe to run the first 500 yards thereby kissing goodbye to a PB if you were in the pack. People were bumping in to each other and the fences were dangerously close. Even the spectators were commenting on it. Wider next year please.

Such a superb Sheffield welcome! So calm, yet exciting from start to finish. Hilly first 5 km but with a wonderful decline all the way almost to the end. Loved it, loved it, loved.

Really enjoyed taking part in the Sheffield 10km. It was a really good atmosphere and inclusive of everyone. Only downside was my size t-shirt at the end had gone there was no XL left which really shouldn't happen, but I got a large one so it's fine, and besides I didn't do it for a goody bag I did it for charity so if I'd gotten nothing I wouldn't have minded. So the goody bag at the end was great despite what these ruddy vegans keep saying. If they want raisins or a banana bring it in your bag and pick it up from the baggage store. All they ever do is complain 🙄

I’ve done this race before so knew what to expect. It was as good as ever but there are two points I want to make:

I ordered a size small t-shirt but when I went to collect it the size small ones had all gone. I had to take a size medium which is far too big and so I will never wear it. This was so disappointing for me. I can only conclude that some people were allowed to swap their size medium for a small before the end of the race. I feel strongly that swapping t-shirts should not be allowed until AFTER the race is over. How unfair it is for someone like me (a slow but determined runner) not to have a t-shirt to wear at the end of the race. I hope you can feel my pain because I was and am genuinely disappointed!

Total absence of any vegan snacks in the goody bag. A banana or bag of raisins would have been so welcome. There were a lot of vegans running this year due to the Vegan Runners AGM being held in Sheffield at the weekend so I wasn’t the only one who was disappointed.

I really enjoyed running the Sheffield 10k. Clear km markers helped me stay on track to achieve my goal time. The crowds made a huge difference to my enjoyment of the race.

I was disappointed that all four edible items included in the race bag given out at the end contained dairy. I would have liked to eat something after finishing the race but had to find an alternative. Something simple like a banana or a pack of raisins without added milk would have been appreciated. I've experienced the same problem at other RunForAll events.
