Its laps of Southampton Common, and to be honest I'm not a big fan of lap races. However, the Common is flat so good for a PB attempt. As always for a RunThrough event it was very well organsied.

Great event, really enjoyed the day.It is a lapped course with a hill which are 2 things I’m not a massive fan of but it was still very quick and it is pleasant scenery so that makes everything ok.As with all RunThrough events it was well organised with lots of volunteers, I picked up the number on the day and used the bag drop. Car park seemed to be plenty of spaces. There were enough portal ops to not have a crazy queue.There wasn’t a huge amount of runners (in the half at least) and not loads of support around the course but with the volunteers cheering on it was enough and being lapped course you kept passing by everyone (probably quite good if you were going to watch).

It was my first ever race and I really enjoyed it!! It was really well organised, easy to find, easy to get my number. It felt really supportive and inclusive which calmed my nerves a lot. I loved the organised warm up and the marshals along the way where super encouraging and supportive!!! They helped so so much so thank you so much to everyone who helped the day run
