Was told to park on the grass, was then shouted at by an elderly man in a high vis telling us to get off the grass, so many people were shouted at, it was awful!!! Everything else was okay apart from this x

Really good event and course/surrounding, very congested start, slow runners talking and three abreast near start, rather oblivious to quicker runners who are trying to get past, otherwise great, good marshals too.

It’s a very lovely 1st time experience. All went well and the path was really flat so had a good first time PB doing the 10k. Only thing is it was a little bit crowded in the beginning as lots of people starting at same time but I believe that you’ve already staggered the time between runs for June so hopefully it would be much better for the participants next time. Thank you all to the organisers and well done for such a very lovely day 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

The event was chaos on arrival. There wasn’t enough parking provision so cars started parking on the course. The ushers originally told people to park there then said not to because it was where the runners were. I didn’t want to get my car stuck if I couldn’t leave whilst people were running nor did I want to run a course with cars leaving and driving on the course whilst I was running. I therefore left and just ran locally instead of take part in the race.

Sadly didn't get an official time for this half marathon. Didn’t enjoy the 4 lap course although the Marshall’s were superb. Not much atmosphere at the start and I couldn’t hear as sound system not great. The weather was great which helped a bit but wouldn’t like to do that course if there had been a cross wind.
