Great little local event

Nice and local little event along the Thames
Finishing at a micro brewery for a fresh pint after . What more do you want

Overall a great event, few tweaks perhaps needed.

Great end location, DB should get Mer billing in the future and maybe offer a better deal than 10% off. Well done for them stepping in though.
If there’s a way to start on stadium way that would be better than Portman Road and then use a big arch. Seems more of a race that way.
Came up a little short despite not cutting corners but still got a massive PB.
The far field was a bit desolate, felt it was making up the miles which could give opportunity to make more of the start & finish at DB.
The river is a massive asset.
Parking deterred at stadium way but seems perfect to use the long railway side parking areas but deter using the unit areas.
Just feedback, loved it!
Prize for 2nd v50 wink wink!

Fantastic event

This was a great event. It was really well organised, the emails beforehand were very informative and covered everything you may need to know. On the day, the briefing was perfect length and helpful. All of the Marshall’s were wonderful and so helpful. It was a fantastic morning out, thank you.

Good race, good vibes, enjoyable

Extend course slightly longer as there seemed to be a lot of people falling short of 10k

Really good race

Just a small thing: many people crossed the finished but not reached 10k, hence we needed to run further. I think we 'lost' few meters during the course. Other than that - great race, cannot wait to fo it again next year

Delightful 10k

This was a great event. It was a lot smaller than others, which made for a great atmosphere, and all runners seemed very friendly. The marshals were great and it was an overall enjoyable 10k.
