Awesome as ever

Free cake, sweets & hot drinks - what more is there to say?!
No there is more to say! The organisers are so friendly and supportive, you can tell it’s a running event ran by runners!
All participants were lovely too, saying well done as they ran past! It was a no pressure event where everyone was celebrated from 5k to 100k!
I will be back!

Good atmosphere and relaxed vibe.
Good for all abilities and is laps so also good for runners of different paces or distances to get together and run their own race then meet up. Had a lovely run and instructions nice and clear.
Better if the cake and drink queue at the end was separate though as the drinks were slow to make. Or if separate queues for the ‘slow to make’ drinks like hot chocolate pods and the ‘quick to make’ ones like instant coffee out the urn.

Fantastic event!
My first ZigZag run. Brilliant event. All the perks of an organised run but less people and stress. All the Marshalls and organisers were super friendly. The route was lovely. The tent with food and drink was a lovely unexpected treat. Love the zigzag merch and bought a lush hat!
Great event, would highly recommend

Cake was well worth the effort!!
Completed a half marathon, loved the idea of being able to stop after the 5km loops, have a drink, have a handful of sweets or go to the toilet.

Amazing Run with Cake after
My first time attending this run, was easy to find. Everyone was lovely & helpful! The views on the run were scenic too! Had a blast, thank you!
Alison Reeves
the Zigzag team were hugely supportive
More clarity at the finish line - unclear where the actual finish was and staff were hidden in the tent. Cake was amazing! Coffee a little slow but delicious!
Great event we will be back!
