Did the race in 2021

The first 5 miles is the toughest, you double back on yourself, but beautiful coastline views. Pretty flat. Really well organised and the marshals were fab! Definitely will be running again next time

5.0

Did the race in 2021

Really well organised and felt very safe. Good atmosphere- course was great, but could’ve done with the hills near mile eight to be at the beginning of the race instead of near the end as in the heat they were killer! Had a great time and overall really enjoyed it.

Did the race in 2021

Well organised, marshalled and signposted, the only slight issue was the start at the back of the pavilion we could not hear the PA to know how to line up - only a problem during Covid! The atmosphere was great and the crowds were amazing, and I would definitely do this event again.

Did the race in 2021

Excellent race. Organisation was faultless. Lots of marshals. Mainly flat with a couple of short sharp hills. One of the best organised races I’ve done, and a beautiful medal. Well worth it.

Did the race in 2021

Mainly very flat with a couple of short, but steep, hills. Good PB course. Great finish area with a great sprint finish opportunity.

Absolutely great run! Stunning Weymouth scenery, well organized. Atmosphere was brilliant and definitely good for beginners.

3.0

Did the race in 2019

The course could have been better. Its certainly not flat! The finish layout in 2019 was as if they ran out of space and had to quickly fit in the last 100m. The first half is good, then as soon as it heads out of town, it loses its appeal. Im sure it could be made better. Other than that, the medal is great and the volunteers/marshals are very supportive. Spectators are also very good, due to the layout though, they are quite sporadic.

Excellent course, possibly the best I have ran. Very well organised enjoyable race. Thank you for a great day!

Did the race in 2019

Really enjoyed the race. Most of the course really attractive and good variety but was a little devalued by up and down stretches. These always feel frustrating and while most of the course was far more attractive than most road races there was a higher proportion of up and back. Generally organisation was good, more space for end of race area, not sure if that is possible but it felt a little chaotic and cramped. Having Pavillion as a centre at the start (to shelter from the weather, get a coffee etc) was great. Marshals were absolutely brilliant, enthusiastic and encouraging. Atmosphere for a race of this size was excellent and I really enjoyed the experience.

Did the race in 2019

Beautiful location - second half of the race quite tough so definitely need to save something in the tank for that ! lovely encouraging emails before and after from the organisers and good comaraderie among the runners - lovely place to run thank you to everyone involved- especially the lady on top of the cliff giving out fruit - you are a star!!
