Super friendly event. The event was really well run with a lovely atmosphere. At places the towpath felt quite narrow. I always prefer a straight out and back or loop 10k but appreciate this needs more volunteers, and I don’t know that section of canal to know if this is possible. Great event overall and loads of snacks left for us back-of-the-pack runners. Caroline Hewitt
A good event, although a very narrow path on the canal and not the route advertised on the map. I wish there was written info on the website about the route. Ruth May
My first event and it was made so easy to get involved. Staff were brilliant and encouraging and other runners were equally encouraging. Good for all levels of running. Thank you Nick Senese
