Great atmosphere, friendly and beginners very welcome. Loved everything about this event.

I came with my friend who was doing their first 5k. Everything about the event helped their nerves to disappear. Everyone was so friendly, the medal brilliant (with a chance to get the bespoke one), plus coffee and cake. Thank you all.

Fantastic event

My first 5k event. Organisers, marshals and volunteers were all great. Coffee and cake at the end was also fab! Thanks everyone.

The more I attend a zigzag event the more I wish to do

All so super friendly!
Each drinks station has additional snacks.
From mile 7 I was thinking of their superb cakes at the end.
Thanks so much everyone

If you love a hill you’ll love this route

Beautiful scenery and a fantastic all road route. ZigZag events are always filled with laughter, coffee, cake and of course a run.

What are you waiting for? Enter a Zig Zag event and see what you have been missing!

Over the years Zig Zag events have given me the confidence to keep challenging myself. It was with them I did my first 1/2 marathon and thanks to that event I have since gone on to do a 100 mile race last December with Centurion. I love coming to any of the Zig Zag events. You know what you’re going to get.

There had been a lot of rain on Friday so with all the cars turning up parking took a little longer. Nothing was any trouble for the Marshalls to help and guide. We started a few minutes later than the normal, punctual start time. But what was great was the RD didn’t rush or stress about the briefing. He had giggles, celebrations and a song for the runners. Any start line nerves I had disappeared.

This course was certainly undulating! But you could walk, jog or run. No one judged. As always the Marshalls live and breathe the Zig Zag ethos. Their smiles, encouragement and snacks will boost anyone. THANK YOU MARSHALLS.

Then you finish to more smiles, cheers and laughter…..and coffee and (vegan) cake! What more could you ask for on a Saturday morning in January?

Has a friendly, community feel

Hills hurt
Drinks and snacks at aid stations and finish were amazing.
POD coffees/hot chocolate and a large slice of cake....worth the pain

My favourite routes are all with Zag zig, and you can’t beat the friendliness of the team that set it up. I love the sense of humour at the briefing

Danish pastries and bananas would be fab instead of cake for me !

Excellent race

Really friendly people and lovely course, always marshalls at and major turns and signs the whole way through. Tough as it was very hilly but the views and cake at the end made it worth it
