A wonderful day!
A beautiful course, fantastic marshalls, well sign-posted and brilliant organisation and so inclusive too - well done!

Great event with lots of different race distances
Great event. Well organised. My only suggestion would be to have water in the race village prior to the event starting - some of the children doing the kids race would have benefited from having a drink before running.

Great local event, well organised,very friendly
A staggered start for the 10k (most popular event?) based on expected finish time would be better imo, as there was far too much bunching and crowding for the first few k, and was not helped when runners entered the woods for the 1st time and on an almost single width track. My time was really slow until we reached 4k with no real spreading out until Heather Farm.

1st time I’ve done this race in its current guise - absolutely fantastic. Impeccably well organised - seemed to go like clockwork, and the Horsell common scenery is varied and beautiful. BRILLIANT!!!

Fun and beautiful
First time for me this year and I really enjoyed it! I don't run very often, but the route and the surroundings were fairly easy, beautiful and well signed. I will definitely do it again

Beautiful, well organised race.
Thoroughly enjoyed running this 10KM race through beautiful Horsell Common. Well organised and extremely friendly. Well marshalled and clear event info before and at the race. Many thanks.

Well organised event for all the family
Needs more coffee vendors as today was very slow
Lovely day was had.
First timer!
Enjoyed the varied terrain with friendly marshaling and will be back next year for sure. Must be an absolute pain to organise considering the different course lengths and location but was brilliant.
Food bank collections a good idea as well. Well done to those in charge.
