2 points I think need addressing. Start and finish regarding traffic. I think the road should be closed in both these areas. We started running then a car came towards us. Then at the finish, a car was blocking me and there were people on the path so had to stop to get round. The rest of the course was great

Just one minor criticism - The finish line completely crossed the main access way to the school from the road and alternative routes were not as clearly marked as they could have been. As a runner, I was worried about crossing the line after the race while I was still wearing my chip and was worried about that affecting my time. I checked with the timer and confirmed it didn't but would have been more beneficial to know the alternative routes in/out of the school grounds.

Cars on the road toward the finish spoils the end of the run and tough to Marshall for. Great event and will enter for 2024

Fantastic, friendly and encouraging marshals.

I have run this race around 20 times and still enjoy it as much as the first time.

There was a lady walking close to the finish line, she was saying some motivational stuff, i found it really empowering. I heard her saying , now you need to dig deep, and i did!
Thank you

Enjoyable the remembrance service before is great

Very friendly team of marshalls and well organised throughout. Beautiful village and surrounding run route. The remembrance service before the run and beautiful medal was very poignant. An enjoyable event.

My second time at this event and I had an absolute hoot running with my pals. The course is challenging in places but the cake and medal are worth it.
My only slight negative is that perhaps Marshals should hold cars with their engines off during the remembrance service. Those people should have enough respect to do that but it wasn’t the case on Sunday which was a shame.
I’ll be back next year, that’s to all for a fantastic race.

Car park could do with separate entrance/exit for cars and pedestrians. Also could do with Marshall’s helping people when leaving as is a bit difficult to see getting out especially with lots of pedestrians walking in the road and through the same gate.

The marshals who were managing the traffic out on the course did a brilliant job in sometimes challenging conditions. The car park entrance and exit needs refinement. We witnessed a near-miss when someone pulled out of the car park as the visibility is poor due to the hedges and pedestrians blocking the view as they wait to enter the car park. Lots of marshals there on arrival but none there when trying to depart.

It would have been very useful to have a marshal at the car park entrance after the event as it was a very slippery uphill slope to a blind exit, some additional straw or gravel over the last few feet of mud/grass would have prevented wheelspin, some rear wheel drive cars were really struggling!
