Fab Event Recommend

Volunteer on corner of Gorilla's near the incline was rude.
Have proper wave starts.
Love having the numbers sent in the post so you can arrive race ready.
All in all great event.

Brilliant run would recommend

Great event but as it's a narrow start waves should be properly organised and have a decent time between them. Also marshall on final corner next to gorilla's rude

Loved it

I’ll do it again but go nearer the front next time as there were lots of people and it was tricky to run past.

Amazing run on the wild side

This was my 1st bib event since starting C25K in May. Not knowing quite what to expect we arrived, to find registration and T shirt collection simple. Loved the warm up, then the start and finish in the carpark, ment supporters could cheer you on then a lovely run round the wild animal park. An undulating coarse with one Cheeky climb

Great first official 5k

Started my 5k journey earlier this year and this was a great event to do my first race. Great organisation. Great atmosphere and the stewards were really supportive. Only thing I’d suggest is the person doing the warm up needed a mic - we couldn’t hear her at the back so had to sort of guess what was happening. Will be back next year!
