I lost sight of the green arrows a few times, but that could be my lack of coordination! I continued running down Ide Lane, near Alphington, when I should have turned left, for example. I loved the route! It's quite hilly so it's a proper challenge, and we had perfect weather conditions for it. In future, it might be good to include a few mileage signs to indicate how far you've ran? Like they do for the Exeter marathon. Just an idea! Thanks for an awesome event.

Shame there weren't more runners bringing in more spectators/atmosphere. Could've done with few more arrows/tape in some areas defining way. Medals had wrong date. But a great course! Loved it! Would do it again!

A 14 mile partly self guided run around the Green circle of Exeter. Through woods, meadows, parks and along the banks of the river Exe. Really nice to explore the whole of Exeter.
