I really enjoyed this race through London. The energy of the organisers was fantastic. It was really well organised and signposted before the event. Despite the large number of runners and supporters everything kept moving. Bag drop worked well. A few of the portaloo's could've done with a loo roll restock. The course was fast and pretty flat. I really enjoyed this run.

Great signage, the bag drop process was wonderful, there were plentiful toilets and the queues weren't horrific, the start time was on time. Slight downs were a very congested start funnel, and a couple of corners early on with walkers not being that tucked in (I was wave two, so wasn't expecting walkers 1km into a 10km), and an absence of nutrition afterwards. The medal and the finishers t-shirt were top notch though

London Marathon vibes, great support, well organised. Only negative: There seemed to be quite a few 'runners' in the wrong waves, which caused congestion at corners.

1) No bib received 2) No communication with a human for about 2 weeks after sending numerous emails 3) Being informed that there was “no guarantee” that I could collect my race pack on the day to arrive on race day with a clearly signed “race pack collection” tent 4) Not enough toilets,not enough toilet rolls 5) Late Start Time 6) Walkers 4 a brest across the road so no chance of running safely 7) Pedestrians crossing at non designated places so causing a sharp stop 8) Only Water at the end & no banana etc.. like other years 9) £43 for a 10K 10) Sign up info wrong for 2027 race attached to your “well done” email

Good course but a few bottlenecks - due to number of people on course started in 10 waves over 1.5 hours (not ideal if running at different pace to friends/family). There was also a very unclear sign up form which asked if you'd like to support a 'Celebrate You' movement (without explaining the implications) and I was put in the final wave of the race (10 out of 10). No accountability or flexibility shown by organisers to move me to an appropriate wave (should have been approx. 3/10 based on my predicted finish time). When I realised what had happened, I was not able to speak to customer services on the phone to explain situation and eventually after a number of emails they said they couldn't move people between waves under any circumstances (despite issue being due to their sign up form). Was very disappointed because of high cost of event, unclear form and impact on ability to reach a personal best.

Great event, vast improvements on last year in terms of bib collection etc. The course itself is a good one with being pretty much out and back, it was well supported and the volunteers were great as they always are at these events. Only one slight bottleneck at the start which made it tight when just getting into your rhythm but other than that well supported and the medal was decent too.

Generally very well run but - no post race snack bag despite it being advertised as such, and this compounded by the fact that the volunteers had clearly been instructed to only hand out one (very small) bottle of water to each finisher. Not great when 20,000 people have just run...

Great event and great organisation for such a large scale event with 20,000 runners. Course has a few turns, mainly on the way out, but is quick on the right day. Lots of facilities and toilets. Was a bit challenging getting from St.James Park across the course to Green Park, but I made it eventually after many of the staff weren't sure of the way in.

First timer for this event. Well organised from the point of view of receiving info ahead of the day. envelope with bib/chip etc got a bit bashed through the post and clearly says about not bending it... maybe a card-backed envelope?? fortunately mine still worked despite a bit of visible creasing on the chip timer. Great course with plenty of pre-warning about tight corners, however there were a lot of people much slower than me in waves which started before mine (we caught them up) and i ran to the time i'd set on my entry... so either people lied about how fast they'd be or started in the wrong wave somehow. The biggest question i have is that my watch, my running buddies watch and other people i checked with, all tracked the distance at 6.4 miles which, as we know, 10k = 6.2 miles.... so either i ran the course on the widest possible route which added 320m to my total distance (unlikely) or the route is longer than 10k...
