Fantastic, friendly and well run event

This was the first time attending the event, I ran the half marathon. Easy to find, parking was straight forward, plenty of toilet facilities, friendly welcome, picking up the race pack was quick, really enjoyable route (albeit the final third was tough going but I was well aware of that), great comradery amongst fellow runners, really well organised, and a good sized slice of cake after!

My first Road Half Marathon

My first time here .Loved the beautiful country lanes and villages that we ran through.
Hard going through the woods as I had road shoes on.
Nice venue ,fab hosts and lovely Marshalls as always .

Excellent event

Another great Zig Zag run. The route was great with the best post-run refreshments. The only thing I'd improve would be the pre-race briefing which was hard to hear though admittedly this was partly down to people talking through it (why don't they just move somewhere else if they don't want to hear it!?). I did want to hear because I was new to the route and, of course, there are different race distances being run over some of the same course so it would have been good to hear of any oddities in the directions. Anyway, it was made easy by good signage and marshalling,

Brilliant! Friendly and easy to follow

Friendly marshall’s really appreciated them!
Brilliant refreshments for runners afterward. Great course quite a few hills but i chose the 10km route so it was okay and very scenic. Everyone was chatty and friendly and i had a great time!

Professionally run with obvious passion for running

The marathon course here is suitably challenging but the organisation, communication and downright passion of every marshal, organiser and participant made for such a glorious day.

Amazing organisation

I would highly recommend anyone interested looking to enter a race. Every event I've been to has been really easy to follow directions of the course, amazing volunteers, and fantastic aid stations.
