Nice flat route, good for those looking for a fast time and good for slower, less experienced runners.
An earlier start for the main race, is something to consider seeing as the race is run in the summer. To reduce the time runners and marshals are out in the main heat of the day.
Over all a good and well organised event.
Thank you.

Great event
Please vary your prize winnings awards, the same awards at each race you organise takes away any uniqueness from events

Simply Wonderful
Gorgeous route, great atmosphere, I’ll definitely do this again. Thank you to all.
Rhona Fry
Gorgeous views fun event
Brilliant marshals, brilliant events organisation EXCEPT ran out of cups on way back - hot weather was forecasted & people towards the back are in more need of water! Major mistake!! ☹️ have taken own cup b4 and been no pouring jugs so didn't take it this time! Can't win! Such a shame as had them at the end could've been driven out to replenish.
Hi Rhona, Thanks for your lovely comments about the race. Just to reassure you and address your concerns regarding the on-course cups, we significantly over supplied the quota of cups to allow for any runners taking a drink after 3.2km as well as 6.8km. We also supplied extra water out there too as we were aware of the conditions. Feedback from the volunteers was that a number of runners were taking several cups on their passes of the water station and this is something we will now incorporate into future planning. We had only slightly more cups than finishers at the finish line as we are able to replenish cups quickly so as to prevent cup wastage (as well as send more out onto the course), and we hope you enjoyed plentiful supplies there.

Flat 10K on road through farmland
Would quite like an earlier start in the summer heat. 9am would have been good.
Special shout out to the volunteer coming round multiple times with a jug of water after the finish to fill up our cup!
Gail Carney
Very friendly

Nice flat rural course in the Romney Marshes
When I got to the water station after completing the loop they had no cups so I had to wait for someone to find some ( they only found a few ) Not good on such a hot day
Hi James, We're sorry about the cup issue Just to reassure you and address your concerns regarding this, we significantly over supplied the quota of cups to allow for any runners taking a drink after 3.2km as well as 6.8km. We also supplied extra water out there too as we were aware of the conditions. Feedback from the volunteers was that some runners were taking several cups on their passes of the water station and this is something we will now incorporate into future planning. We had only slightly more cups than finishers at the finish line as we are able to replenish cups quickly so as to prevent cup wastage and hope you had several refills with us there.
