Fast fun loop around industrial heritage

I couldn't fault the morning, the only thing that detracted from the experience was being stuck sitting in the queue to get out of the car park whilst cold and wet.

Great atmosphere with Christmas music

Warm up was great and needed as it was cold yesterday morning.
Finished 10K then put on Santa suit to run the 1K santa dash. Unexpected medal at the end of it.
Loved my morning run.

Good race

Making parking free everywhere my family came later and parked in the main parking they were charge 3.50 for les than one hour they didn’t see the parking allocate for the race . If u think the parking was empty it was a bit cheeky from the dockyard to charge . Also maybe to liase with the security in the dockyard the queue to leave was horrible as the barrier was down and it took forever more than 5 minutes , when it worked , between cars

Fun run but a boring 4 laps

Perfect parking. Route was awful but good to have no cars on route. Parking was meant to be free but upon leaving had to pay £3.50 to get out.

Wonderful opportunity to run around Chatham Dockyard

All the marshalls were friendly. I found it a great motivator hearing the Christmas music being played in the Start-Finish area
