Another fabulous event from the H&T team. The touches of the last post, gun salute and two minutes silence mid race and of course a stunning medal as always meant a special event to take part in. Pete and Bev are so friendly & really make you feel welcome

Fantastic

Loved this run , so respectful with the army charity being present, the last post being played, and the two minute silence out on the course at 11am .
Beautiful medal and great snacks .

A great run

It was a tough 10.7 k loop...but the scenario was fabulous and there was a great atmosphere and community feel.

Great organisation, lovely course and fab medal

A really well organised event with the added bonus of knowing you are supporting such a fantastic charity, The Airborne Gunners Trust.

Everyone is so welcoming and supportive and the fuelling station was great as was the medal. The views over the river on the course are beautiful and take your mind off that long stretch along the sea wall!

This was my second H&T event and I will certainly be booking some more.

Well organised and amazing medal!

Love the H&T events as so well organised, great support with fab fuelling stations and topped off with the best medals.
I saw this as an opportunity to run my first half marathon and although Brightlingsea is a challenging course and I love the no pressure approach. Far more enjoyable than a normal start and finish line half marathon.

A wonderful friendly event

I thoroughly enjoyed the whole day. What topped it off, being an veteran, to hear the last post being played before the start of the run was just brilliant and the young lady should be very proud of herself

Love the concept of the tortoise and the hare as mixed abilities and fantastic medal. Friendliness event I’ve been to. Thank you

Beautiful views of river. Good course

The reason I didn't rate it higher for value is basically I'm a tight wad and know I can run there anytime. I'm also not a bling medal collector. It was however a great medal and I rated it highly for all other aspects.

Good event

Would you be able to start at 830 so could have 7hr cut off like other events as a challenging route ? stopped at 20 mile as route was quite difficult and didn't make it x

Well worth it

I did the 6 hour challenge event for remembrance, and couldn’t fault the team. Any questions I had before the event were answered promptly.
The set up was perfect and the choice of snacks and drinks they provide left me feeling very appreciative. Plus their medals are always good looking!
