Apart from the awful hills (undulating does not cut it!) this was a fantastic race, great to start from somewhere with good toilets! Well done Striders, will be there next year, still having nightmares about Stockers Hill

Friendly atmosphere, challenging course. Marshalls were brilliant

Sittingbourne Striders were absolutely brilliant. So much support on the route, so super encouraging and friendly before, during and after. Honestly couldn’t recommend this event enough!! Thank you x

Sittingbourne Striders were amazing too.

An all round well organised event, friendly like minded Marshalls and a great atmosphere. Room for improvement if I was being ultra picky:

1) Return of t-shirts, even if it was for an optional premium.

2) The photo ID for number collection seemed OTT for a local event.

Well organised by a fun and friendly team.
Lots of marshalls all the way along the route to help direct you and also keep you motivated.
It is an undulating course, especially the steep decent and the start and the steep hill back up at the end.
Very enjoyable day

This was my first outing on the new Sittingbourne 10 course.
Possibly the best race HQ I have seen in Kent. Well organised with plenty of hard surface parking, good toilets and even a posh canteen.
The race was accurately measured, largely on traffic free country lanes, very well marshalled and marked with plenty of enthusiastic support.
Although lumpy, the route is suitable for beginners and more experienced runners alike, but I don’t think it could be described as a potential pb course.
Well done to Sportingevents and Sittingbourne Striders, I recommend that everyone puts this event on your fixture list for 2025.

Thank you Sittingbourne Striders

From the email information to the marshalling on the day this was probably the best organised event I have taken part in. My inability to cope with the hills was entirely my fault (lack of training due to recovering from a cold).
Would recommend this to others (and have) but would caution beginners about the elevation gains.
Goodie bag at the end, along with the food and drink at the end - definitely one for the calendar next year.

Great course, started on time and nice to have a goody bag and cake at the end. Sittingbourne Striders say 'the t-shirt is back' next year so should be even better! Thank you and well done all.

The course was challenging in terms of the elevation and number of hills but it was a good challenge and I really enjoyed it. Would definitely consider doing it again. It was a lovely course in beautiful countryside.

Brillant all round marshal's where fantastic and very supportive

Definitely be back next year.

By far the Best local Event I've been to, lovely route apart from the hills

Very friendly event from Sittingbourne Striders, who had gone above & beyond with the after race snacks & goodies. The location was perfect with good parking, warmth if required and nice loos (always a bonus), and not too crowded as entry to the event was limited.
Would definitely recommend and hopefully will return next year (if there is an O70 age cat!!)
