Friendliest 10km ever

Absolutely loved this race. Beautiful route and the friendliest Marshalls and tail walkers. Really nice atmosphere at start and finish and great for anyone who isn’t confident. Pretty sure I came last and I still had the best time! Excellent organisation.

Lovely local Event

Lovely event in the picturesque North downs. This is suitable for all abilities, nice atmosphere, and a great route. Tough incline at 6k, provides a nice challenge.

No outline of course

Everyone we came in to contact with was great. Unfortunately, the junior run wasn’t marked out or marshaled correctly which led to people cutting corners etc. We were under the impression it was a 2K course but it probably was more like 1.2K. We would return if the course was correctly marshaled or outlined so the correct distance was run by all.

A great run on a Friday evening

A great course, friendly marshalls, a really lovely way to spend a Friday evening I ran last year and this year and I will be back next year!

Professional and friendly race in lovely setting.

Good car park setup. Nice venue IE able to get a drink at the end. Marshals were brilliant, thank you Striders.

Beautiful course , great support!

A really enjoyable course for the slower runner like myself. Lovely views on a summer evening ...even the one significant hill in the middle allowed me a little brisk walk followed by the welcome water station then a refreshed downhill run nearly all the way to the finish. Will definitely do again next year

Favourite local 10k

Really enjoyable 10k. A great base location with the bar, burgers, football on tv and the amazing cakes available.

The best marshal's supporting throughout too. Thank you and see you again next year.
