It was a fabulous event. The signage was brilliant. People were encouraging.

The band could have been nearer the finish line area. They were so good.

Really lovely

Signage issues for some. But most of the feedback to me as a marshall was very positive and they want to run it again next year.

I really loved this run

Please run it again next year but make the top of the hill a bit clearer - more arrows please as we got lost (10k)

Lovely route apart from brutal Hill at mile 3. Bigger signs would make navigation easier.

Shame to have a weather warning for very strong winds for your first wye event. Warning truly delivered! Totally out of your control but did add to the challenge on the hills! I think more marshals and bigger signs next time. Several places where 2 possible directions to choose from and no visible sign at all and at the end of one field a few of us, myself included, went the wrong way as the sign had blown down and had to retrace our steps. Annoying if you're chasing a PB on any other day but the wind made that impossible so just added to the leg work!
I think this will be a great event once these little teething problems have been ironed out.
