No registration time listed. Had to guess.Directions to the parking nonexistent, only found it by chance and the signage didn't reference the event or organiser.The surface needs to be mentioned somewhere. Road, trail or farm track just say...I ran this with someone for whom it was their first event. They were quite slow, however the support of the aid station and spectators kept him going.

I really enjoyed the event and would do it again. This is a light-trail/mixed route, so you don’t need trail trainers, but I wouldn’t recommend carbon plated trainers or anything with a high heel stack as you need stability on the uneven parts. Positives: Good value race - free photos and nice medal and pin badge. Scenic route with Belvoir Castle as a backdrop. Challenging, hilly route (first mile of each 5k lap is uphill). Relaxed, friendly atmosphere. Plenty of water available. Parking is very close to registration tent and start. Lots of toilets this year. Minor things to improve: Race day info should be sent out earlier. Some signs on the route could be improved - at one point a sign pointed straight ahead but the path split in two and one runner told me they went the wrong way. At the 5k point, have signs directing you to either the second lap or the finish instead of a marshall trying to shout at you to ask if you were doing the 5k or 10k and asking which lap you were on!! Signs for parking could be improved - signs were small and said “event parking”, but not which event.

The signage was atrocious to get there, the course was a trail run and there was no warning of the massively uneven rocky paths, and the hill was much steeper than advertised
