Amazing course and support, everything was top-notch. Can’t wait to race again next year! Another amazing night run with absolutely brilliant volunteers who encourage you all the way round from start to finish. Loved it! Linda P

This event comes highly recommended. Very well organised and marked out route, trail shoes recommended due to the muddy sections but this is all advised before hand. Friendly and encouraging Marshall's all around the course which makes the run even more fun! Paige D

This was a great event and my 9 year old loved her first ever 5km run! The course was well marked and my daughter was easily able to navigate us around. All the marshalls were very encouraging and friendly as we passed. Hayley N

Really well organised, interesting route, well marked and fabulous staff, marshals and volunteers supporting the event. Ali F

Event comms are clear, well in advance and on point. Great atmosphere and organisation in the day/night. Given it was a cold night the marshalls & volunteers were amazing - encouraging, a good laugh with clear instructions. Safety is always a priority, sustainability is considered and these combined with the atmosphere, people and locations make the event very easy to return. Huge thank you and well done to Dan, Jan and their team. Gemma D

I've never run at night before and I ran this one solo, but the vibe was great and everyone was so friendly I didn't feel alone at all. The organisers and volunteers were fab and supportive. The course was very well marked so even I couldn't get it wrong! Will definitely do it again Claire R
