Very well organised series
Summer series is a great event for all the family whether you are taking part in spectating. 2k run is great for children and nice to have the option of 5k and 10k for adults. Well organised family friendly event.
Great Family Summer Series
I've loved the summer series again. Great family event where I can watch my grandchildren take part in the fun run before I run the 10k. We will all be back next summer and in the meantime I'm looking forward to running in your next 10k events at Siren Craft Brewery next month and Gutbuster end of the year. Thank you for organising and thank you to all the marshals.
Good fun for all
The fun run is a lovely event for young runners.
Can’t wait for next year!
Really enjoyed the race - why hadn’t I entered this one before?!
2nd time I have done all 4 runs - I will back next year
I love it - I join for all 4 races every year - but occasionally I have to cancel one or two due to injury or other commitments
I wouldn't miss it
Great race let down by lack of facilities aka toilets
Fantastic place to run, great atmosphere and great scenery but having to use cafe toilets for a race with 200 plus runners isn't great, especially as the cafe isn't close to the race start. The men's toilet had 2 urinals and 2 cubicles, and the women were queuing round the block to use them. Maybe get
some portaloos for next season
There are two sets of male and female toilets at the cafe - both were open last night - there is just a door connecting them…. Not sure if these got missed?? I appreciate the distance isn’t ideal…..
Brilliant amazing and very good! Loved having the pacers in the July 25 one!!
Amazing kids race with fabulous Marshalls!
First ever 5k
This was my first 5k race and It was so good. Everyone was friendly and made me feel welcome. It was the best coming over the finish line and getting my medal. Wish I did all 4 now.
Welcoming and supportive kids race
My 6 year old completed all 4 series and has really enjoyed the experience of running with a chip and medals.
The team made all the children feel special with marshals clapping along the route and calling their names at the end. My son is not a fast runner but really loved it. Great atmosphere and first race for kids. We stayed to watch his dad run - another well organised event.
Thank you for organising the event!
Fantastic Event!
Thank you to everyone involved in putting this event on. It was so well organised and everybody was lovely!
Summertime Series
Great Series and will be back. My problem this year was that I signed for the Series and could only do the first one due to injury. So £90 for just one event was a bit of a shocker. I'll do PAYG next year ;)
Sorry to hear that - the “joy” of being a runner. Hope you’re back running consistently pain free now.
Amazing
Excellent event. Volunteers were amazing. Great evening finished off with ice cream. Even the opportunity for a pizza and a cold beverage. Great medal and so well organised.
Had the best time at the Barnes Summer series! 100% recommendation!
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.
