I was not notified of my time

First time doing this (although I live in Whitstable) and found the marshalling and overall organisation was fantastic. Great fun vibe and will definitely be booking for next year. Thank you!

Great organisation, great route, loved running by the sea, and would recommend.

Convenient parking in Gorrell Tank Carpark. Plenty of helpful volunteers. Lots of cafes after the run as well. The waves, with just a few minutes between each one, works well.

Only minor difficulty is around Welseley Ave where cars are moving around runners. Overall a great, fast course.

Only observation was the waves...I got caught up trying to get passed slower people at the start of the race. That said, I'm pretty sure a huge amount of runners predict an optimistic 1hr, so there needs to be a few waves for those of us in that category. At the end of the day, I was running for me, did a fab time and thoroughly enjoyed it!

Sporting events at their finest- been doing event for over 12 years - hope to do another 12!!!… has a mini London marathon atmosphere feel - so nice to see so many people lining the route

Easily the best 10k of the calendar

Thank you for putting on a great event. Loved it

Bag drop could have been signposted more clearly. I didn’t use it but helped several people who were looking to find it

Didn’t get a text with time for some reason . The people that finished earlier than us did. Apart from that small thing everything else was perfect.

Free street parking and toilets near start line. Well managed admin and well marshalled throughout. Last 5k is pancake flat along the scenic seafront and provides a quality medal with technical tee. Great value.

Poor organisation and pre race instructions sent us to the wrong location for registration. Marshals at the start are too vigilant on wave starts ignoring the fact that entries were done months ago and things happen causing people to want to drop back, yet this was frowned upon. There was no way to update predicted times based on recent fitness and we were made to feel like criminals for wishing to drop back due to changes in fitness.

Another fantastic event from Sporting Events UK. From bib collection to getting my medal and water at the finish, everything was absolutely perfect. You can never fault an event from this amazing team!

Very well marshalled which made the route very easy and safe to follow. Great finishers top.

I love this race, the entire course is lined with spectators which adds to the amazing atmosphere.
It’s a reasonably flat and fast route, ideal for a PB.
Brilliantly organised, well done Sporting Events team.

Such a well organised event with amazing scenery and an abundance of supporters around the course, very friendly marshals as well.

Ideal for beginners or anyone chasing a PB as it’s a fast and flat course and to top it off with a gorgeous medal and free T-shirt! Will happily return next year and sporting events yet again delivering on excellent service and experience.

Loved it

A lovely level one lap route. No fast runners hurtling past you in the opposite direction to get to the finish (as a slow runner I find them quite alarming). Lots of marshalls and support from the public.
