Dover. Lovely harbour/marina run.

Maybe consider earlier start so as not to annoy the locals especially as I would expect the running group to get bigger.

Really well organised

Really well organised event, marshals and volunteers were brilliant and the atmosphere was amazing.
Pins to attach your bibs were a nice touch! Supporters also commented on how enjoyable it was and especially like people being mentioned as they crossed the finish line.

Stunning run along the seafront

Perfect for any runner, any ability.. great for a PB if the wind isn’t too strong

A good well organised event.

Only thing I would change would be start time to say 9 o clock as both years it’s been very hot and sea fro t gets very busy on a Sunday and it’s the last Sunday of the summer holidays!

Well organised, loved the medal

Good to have numerous toilet facilities and refreshment options. Parking was a bit of a challenge.

Lovely Flat Route

Ran this last year and was pleased to see it back for this year.
Lovely two lap route, with great views. Well organised with enthusiastic volunteers full of encouragement all the way round.
Hope to see it back again for next year.

Great event - my first one!

Prompt instructions. Map could do with showing where Registration was (says Race HQ but I'm a first timer, didn't know whether that also meant Reg). Completely missed the water station at the start of the second lap! 0900h start may be better, less hot, less public on the route. Fab medal! Thank you ❤️

Great fast course with plenty to keep you interested.

Is there anyway you can display individual running clubs on the results page?

A fantastic route.

Two loops of the pier and curve add stunning views to this flat and fast 10k. Recommend to all abilities.

After a late 10am start, the marshalls did brilliantly keeping the runners going through the busy crowds. (Something to possibly change)

Excellent event for any ability.

Great communication leading up to the event. This is a 2 lap course along the Dover seafront. Lots of support from the volunteers throughout the event and one I will definitely do again.

A well organised first event for Dover which I hope will be staged again for 2024.

I only ran the first lap so was able to see the finishers come in. I did notice a handful of runners got a litter confused on the second lap around the Marina. Maybe the route could be made clearer, and a map of the route included in the confirmation email.

Scenic flat route - good for PBs

Needed more marshals at junction points, given that some racers were sent in the wrong direction and run extra distances. Junctions were a little complicated and two lengths of the new pier was a little boring.
