Looking forward to next year lol

Thank you to all the organisers and helpers. Superb effort. Made it very straight forward for us runners.

I really enjoyed this race but I think that there are some areas that need improvement.
1. At the finish there was a toddler helping to hand out medals. She was blocking my way and I nearly squashed her as I went through the finish. This could have been a nasty accident for her and for me. I don’t think it’s appropriate to have a toddler in this area at all.
2. As I understand it the second timing mat is involved in giving the finishing time, so runners should - theoretically - keep running till they’re over the second mat. Those giving out the medals were very close to the second mat. If you’re sprinting for the finish then you need a bit of space to put the brakes on! It would have been better to have had the medal distribution a bit further away from the second finishing mat than it was.
3. If I’m doing a race then when I get to a water station I expect to grab a cup of water and go. When I got to the water station there was no water to grab! - so I didn’t have any. Some runners had stopped to pour water for themselves from a jug! Surely the water station should be better organised than this?
4. My husband, an experienced running competitor, observed that the first two runners to finish took the wrong route around the field at the finish due to inadequate marshalling.
Despite the above issues overall I was very impressed by the event and will be doing it again - and also recommending it to other runners.

Undulating is running code for hilly. Would be good to warn runners about the steep climb up through the orchard.

A really enjoyable, well organised run from start to finish with Serada fitness warm up and medal, water, cake etc. at the end.

Lovely locals & delicious homemade cake . Brilliant organising !

Excellent event & no quibbles EXCEPT organisers need to set up two separate queues for registering for the 5k and the 10k race.
There was a bit of confusion this morning & it wasn’t at all clear.

The organisation was on point from the super helpful marshalls at every turn to the cold water and beer/cake at the end! The medal was also pretty spectacular.

Great enthusiasm from all involved. Very well organised. The kiddies run before-hand was a great idea!

I loved attending this event. It was very well organised, everyone was friendly and the course was great! Thank you!

Super atmosphere there at the start and then finish. Delicious WI cakes, the marshalling was friendly and first class. Thumbs up all round.

Could of done with pub being open earlier or a mobile coffee van

Ran in dry conditions, trails would be very different in the wet. But dry on a hot day

Lovely organisers and friendly Marshall’s. Lots of terrains which made it lots of fun.

Loved the contribution from the WI at the finish line. Very much appreciated on a hot and surprisingly hilly run
