An excellent road marathon.

Enjoyed it, there is 1,300 ft of ascent. It will come out at 26.2 miles if you stick to the side of the road and follow the ORANGE SIGNS!
I would absolutely recommend this run to anyone preparing for a big city marathon, the training and support you get are worth it. Well done to ZIG ZAG for another well put together event.

Incredible race!

The volunteers were amazing! I wouldn't have been able to do it without the support after making a wrong turn!

Very relaxed and welcoming event especially as I am a beginner.

From start to finish, a very well organised event. A first half marathon for me and it did not disappoint. So much support, beautiful scenic road route and amazing well stocked aid stations. Thoroughly enjoyed my experience! Thank you Zigzag running for a pleasant Sunday run

Great way to get running

Great organisation and great atmosphere! Route was tough with lots of hills! Great medal.

If i have any suggestion but don’t know if possible would be to start marathons on hot days earlier! Really tough.

Amazing experience

Fantastic organised event, supplied with drinks and snacks along the route which really helped in the heat. Well signposted so I didn’t get lost this time. Friendly atmosphere and beautiful scenery, and coffee and a cake and a great medal. Worth every step !! Zoe and Stephen and the team, thank you so much !!!

Beautiful route, although hilly!

Really enjoyed this race, very friendly organisers, the refreshment stations were the best I’ve seen.
The only small negative was the course was 0.2 miles short so had to keep running to get my 13.1 miles for Strava.

A well organised event and I would like to say a big thank you to all the marshals and volunteers especially at the the aid stations for keeping us hydrated in the hot conditions and cheering us on!

Hot, hilly, fun!

I really enjoyed this run. I usually do bigger races and found this to be really unique. Super friendly hosts, even handing out ice lollies due to the heat which I thought was amazing!

Fantastic scenery and quiet roads, but very hilly

Great event, well organised and good value for money. The icepops delivered by car were a nice touch considering the temperature!

My only problem was the race distance wasn’t 13.1 miles. My watch and many others came in at 12.8 which is a shame.

12.8 miles on mine and many other runners.
