I'd highly recommend this race - a beautiful part of the world and the canal route is a great way to see it. The atmosphere was very friendly, the opposite of a big-sponsor mega-race. Very personable organisers and friendly fellow-runners.

Friendly and informal. More pre race info would have been useful and the course was a little over 20 miles. But enjoyed it

Excellent friendly event 😃 both the runners and the marshalls who did an amazing job . Many thanks to the back marker for his words of encouragement and banter for a slower runner like myself 😂 but it's all about taking part , starting completing, enjoying and getting the awesome Medal and cakes! I'll definitely be entering many more events . Thankyou to everyone involved 👍👏

The course would have benefitted from a few more marshals and signs. Runners doing the same race distance were set off at apparently random times which was confusing and not as advertised. The runners I met en route were all really positive and encouraging.

Absolutely terrible race, the organisation was a shambles. There was no marshal at the midpoint of the 10km race which is an out and back race. So no one knew when to turn around! Ended up running 11+km and having to stop mid-race to search for the non existent marshal so a total waste of chip timing. It essentially became a very expensive run along a canal for an indeterminate distance. It's advertised as having prizes these do not exist! There was also no bag drop as advertised. Simple things such as better signage could have greatly improved this event. Not coming back and totally ruined my day, not worth £20+ one bit!
