All Round Great Event

I would thoroughly recommend taking part in one of the ZigZag events. Great event, very well organised and lovely people involved. Train Hard and you’ll be the reward!!

Tough 10k.

I really enjoyed it, I wish the course was a loop as opposed to there and back as uts disheartening when the quicker runners are flying past

Super friendly environment

This was a well organized run, with a very friendly and supportive feel. Giving my wife a 1st Half Marathon lanyard was a really nice touch. Would definitely recommend!

Very welcoming to a first timer

This was my first half marathon and the staff and other participants very very welcoming and encouraging I felt right at home. The directions and on course marshals were excellent. The cake at the end was very nice and the medals were great. I look forward to entering another event in the near future

Lovely but lacked direction on the course.

Most of the route was amazing. I have to say running along the horse paddocks and next to the race track in Newmarket was beautiful. However the course was not marked all that well and had to run through some iffy parts getting snagged by thorn bushes or low hanging tree branches. All in all it was a very good time and worth the scenic view.

Another great event with zig zag running. With a bonus of cake and an Easter egg at the end.

Really enjoyed it today. With some great fellow runners.

Friendly, fun event

Thanks again for being flexible and letting me run a slightly off piste distance!

If I was being picky I'd love 2 improvements.
1. Some of the red signs look really similar to orange signs. If all red signs were white on red and all orange signs were black on orange, it would clear up any confusion.
2. I always find it difficult to find the correct gpx file to download. Last race I couldn't find the 10k bit at all and this race I only downloaded half of the gallops gpx. Would be awesome to have a direct link on the confirmation email.
