Great series with a positive vibe and beautiful scenery
The organisation and attention to detail are impressive. The series of four races combines a genuine trail challenge for faster runners with supportive upbeat encouragement to the less experienced; the overall message is ‘this is fun and we should all be proud of ourselves’. Do join us for Race 4 - and next year!
Very enjoyable and well organised series!
Again brilliant ... as always
Thanks Ellie, Ian and the team. Superb event, once again, from start to finish. Keep it going
Safe and well organised
The event for kids is fantastic. It’s well organised. Communication is clear. The route safe with marshals along the 2k route providing peace of mind. Love that there is a medal and that it’s a chipped event.
Love it..!
I have ran numerous races over the years with Barnes Fitness..
Always brilliantly organised with lots of pre and post race info…Ellie and her team work hard to ensure all races are well supported, safe and most importantly fun..!
Already can’t wait for next year’s series.
Such a well organised event with an amazing atmosphere from start to finish. I love how Ellie always gives a shout out to every runner as they cross the halfway line and the finish line. It gives it a real personal touch.
A wonderful mid week event
Kind course. Well marshalled. Superbly organised.
Always amazing
I have been doing this series for at least 17 years from when my daughter was a baby... And this year, after years of cheerleading, she is racing with me. You can't beat the scenery but organisation is always spot on. Love it!
I’ll be back!
Great fun atmosphere
Just like the little extras, podium with thought bubbles, ice cream van, feels like a family event
Another great race well organised as usual by Ellie
Registration was very flexible. I had signed up for the 10K and not the 5k by mistake, but they were happy to change my entry on the day.
It’s always nice to do a midweek Race and this Series fits the bill nicely
After each Series, I keep saying to myself this will probably be the last time but I keep coming back for more . I wonder why that is ?
Would like to see the return of free beer after finishing though . Any chance for next year ?
Very nice timing for a family week run
It would be lovely to have the possibility to eat something after the race as a family. Maybe a pizza or fish and chips van or something to make an evening out of it
Great route, well organised and lovely location!
Massive thank you to the volunteers, the event was really smooth and the course was lovely!
It would be great if future events could move away from plastic cups and encourage people to bring their own water or refillable container.
Perfect for beginners or slower paced 5k runners
The marshals are so supportive, I was accompanied by Marie on one run. She gave great advise, encouraged and got me round on a super hot day. Im a slow runner so its great you don't feel last at any point. Very well organised events.
Lovely summer evening for runners
Excellent event, lovely fun atmosphere, beautiful setting, can’t fault the organisation.
Great run, easy to register and good fun!
Great mid-weeker!
Brilliant ... as always
Great event, well organised, great location, great atmosphere, kudos to Ellie, Ian, Chris and all the volunteers/helpers
Safe and well organised
The kids were safe which is the number one priority for me. It was well organised and started on time. Fantastic running event for children.
