Good first experience in Tower Climbing and wish I had entered for a longer event. Good challenge but felt I could have done more so next time who knows. Well run, with good support on the stairs, and beforehand in the warm up. Great medal

I've done a lot of different race over the years but none quite like this one. It was exceptionally well organised and had a really great vibe. Great support, wicked music and lovely people. I'll be back for sure....

Well organised event, with friendly helpful staff. Thanks to the team on the stairs! Now it's a summer event, perhaps an couple of screened off areas for changing would help keep the loos clear?

Brilliant event cannot fault anything. This was a bucket List event for my wife and I, but think we have caught the bug and want to do more, so next year we hopefully will be back. First class organisation from moment of turning up at the Broadgate Tower. The ladies who handed out the numbers were so friendly and explained everything to us, we felt relaxed. The other runners who were from the elite and ultimate races were also so friendly and chatted with us, they were great, we were in the 09:30 hrs event. Brilliant race director who gave clear concise instructions and cannot miss out the other helpers on the course who encouraged us all the way to the top. We are both still buzzing and have told many of our running friends about the event. Thanks all.

Our first time at such an event, it was a bucket list event but I think we have caught the bug.. First thing i have to mention is what a really professional and friendly group of people to deal with. You all made our day so exciting and rewarding. Your organisation for the event was first class, lovely ladies who explained everything to us and handed over our numbers etc. Great introduction by race director and what friendly people who took part in the events. So much support. Thanks again we loved it.
