Did the race in 2022
Course was good, very glad they put in another water station due to the heat (was needed) Clear signage from road on how to get to the race would have been a massive help. Nice if person on the tannoy said when everyone came through the finish, bit of shame to finish and not know how well you did or not. (First male/female of 5/10k/half etc) Pictures could have been a lot better. Difficult to find if you don’t have the app. Parking was good

Organisation was a complete shambles. Once on the estate, there was no signage to say there to go. Public cars using the same path as runners was down right dangerous! The race should have been called off!! The UK was issued with a red weather warning!!Getting out of the estate was also confusing due to lack of signage.There was very few marshals…. Recommended more next time!

Badly signed posted directions to the event. Site was not safe due to filming going on within the estate. We were promised an email explaining what went wrong ,no email was received.

Hi This is only helpful suggestions to make it better. There was no results on the day. I was an age group winner and would have been nice to have known on the day and how about a discount off the next event for all age group winners as a prize. Plus the course was more than 10k this would have bothered some people as they like to compare race on race. Have the children’s race on a slightly separate course as it held up the main event. Standing around in the heat was uncomfortable. Directions to get into the venue were not signed. We came in the normal way as local to the area. My husband who was watching said that the first person who came over the finish line was not acknowledged. On the plus side atmosphere was good and relaxed and good signage on run and marshals friendly. Plenty of loos. Overall sure it will be better next time. Thanks for sending the age group trophy nice gesture.

There was confusion among the organisers on the day as the venue was being shared with a film crew. This resulted in congestion and delay in the start. Signage regarding the car park and exit was non existent on the day.

Such a great run, the weather was a bit hot but the organisers did everything to put the runners health first with extra water stations and changing race times.
