Great event, couldn’t hear the announcement at beginning. Coming in at the end to the finish line it was chaos with people not respecting runners coming in and no formal patch to the end. The organisers should have ensured a clear path to the end was free
The end no clear path to the finish line. Spectators were standing in the middle of the finish line and no clear instruction or guidance to get them out the way causing chaos at the end for the runners trying to finish. Organisers should have been there to ensure people respected the last push to the end was clear.

Great course with community feel
A very scenic (mostly flat) two lap run with great support from locals and water stations en route.
The finish funnel was particularly poor for slower runners with a lack of marshalls/signposts meaning that participants who’d already finished and general public were blocking the way - we had to stop and ask where we were going and ask people to move so we could get through! Easily improved but overall a great experience.

Friendly event in lovely setting
No marshal at MP16 which meant some runners cut out a small part of the route. Some marshalls were not always very vocal about where runners should go especially as runners thinned out towards the end.
We weren't initally aware there was a 2 minute silence before the run due to the noise of a generator running behind us.
Otherwise a really lovely run. Thanks.
Lorraine Legg
Great venue, brilliant marshalls, lovely medal.
Well organised event, although difficult to hear the tannoy announcements. Lovely views over the River Medway on a mainly flat course. The marshalls were really supportive. Great design of the medal.
Cat Borrell
Lovely event
Very well organised and friendly event. Great for first time triers, I had a great time. Marshalls were great and everything was on hand. Would recommend a slightly louder tannoy system at the start as it was difficult to hear, and potentially more help on the medal table, seemed a lot of work for one person. Thank you for a great event
Kate Nehaili
Fun, friendly 10k. Thanks!
Chris Brett
Quick and most flat course ideal for beginners
Very well organised event with great support from the marshals and fantastic atmosphere, the course was equally nice with a few twists and turns and some minor hill work but mostly flat with some beautiful views is ideal for beginners. My only criticism would be the lack of space at the event HQ made things a little chaotic at times but didn’t impact the overall race event.
Kerstin Cresswell
Friendly, fun and fast.
The tannoy announcement could be better.
Sam Darby

Great route, well organised, fantastic marshals. No bells and whistles just a simple cup of water at the end

Great run and love that’s it’s so local
David Andrew
Perfect run amazing views outstanding place loved it
This is one of the best runs i have ever done absolutly spot on.
Daniel Lopez
Well organized and great route but not the best value for money.
This is a really nice route to run as it's mostly flat with great scenery and they limit the amount of cars that can get in the way. Overall it was organised well and planned but I've ran a few 10km races and they usually have some free goodies that are given away as you finish but this didn't. Have anything which is a bit disappointing. Other than that it was a great event and I will run again next year because it's local to me.
Rob Ryan
Great and well organised run
Throughly enjoyed the run.
Thanks
(One slight constructive criticism would’ve that the medals could be year dated … but as I said very slight as whole event was great )
Mick Miles
Brilliant Event
Chris Hursell
Excellent scenic run with superb organisation
Julie Harrison-Carroll
Great race.
I have done this race several times and I love it. The only thing which I think could have been a bit better was when some of the slower runners where coming in to the finish ( before you get to the band stand) lots of people were standing in the way, which can be very off putting for some runners as they had to dodge people. Also I didnt get a results text message again. keep up the good work, love your events.
