Claire Chantler
Well organised, great atmosphere, well thought out course - not too muddy for January!
Jesse Smith
Brilliant and well organised event
Excellent facilities as well pre and post run.
Scott Matthews
Get your hill training in or go home.
Matt Hooper
Very tough course, great scenery, good overall
Long queue to get into Longleat from roundabout. Car parks very well organised. Bit chaotic before the start, struggled to hear instructions re start line. NEED MORE TOILETS! Queue was huge, need some portaloos either at race hq, near the start or on course (didn’t see any).
Race was great - lots of traffic first time up the hill though. Maybe could do with one more drink station. Hills were tough but rewarding, good atmosphere generally. Very disappointed with the “bag” and cheap packet of crisps upon finishing. Car park easy to leave but took a while to get back to the main road. Overall a very good and enjoyable event, thanks
Alice Page
Lovely course, with the odd animal to spot too!
Teresa Lovern
Great organisation, plenty of toilets, parking close to venue, space to wait out of the cold and excellent marshals.
I won my age group (FV70), looking forward to receiving my prize!
Sarah Clifton
Wonderful, once the race started!
The traffic management was awful, we had planned to arrive 50 minutes early but due to the queues only ended up arriving with 6 minutes to spare. Poor signage meant we missed the race hq and baggage tent. Dodged a lot of spectators standing in middle ofthe route so some barriers would be good. The medal and tshirt are both gorgeous and the route was really lovely, just a shame about the panicked experience of trying to arrive on time
Mark Heyward
Epic 10k event
Struggles with parking delays this year. Took 40 minutes for the last mile.
Pam Ferguson
Great race, well organised in a great location. Challenging race for a first 10k, but good test for a more experienced runner.
Bryan Avory
Amazing well organised event for all levels from speedy racers to fun racers. I would and have recommended it to friends
Thanks for a great day!
Laura Cowie
Loved this race, despite the cheeky hills. Great atmosphere and well organised. What a finishing straight!
Joanne Earnshaw
Great hard hilly race
Louise Hutchings
Great for a first timer
Whilst the race was organised perfectly and great for the runners, I would feedback for the spectators that there could have been more for them. Longleat only had 1 cafe open with 3 workers and 30 minute queues for coffees (meaning those who ran a fast race were nearly missed!). Just a suggestion that some pop up food/coffee vans would have been a great idea to service all the spectators.
Martin Pearce
Well organised, great 10k around the grounds of Longleat. Beware the hills!!!
Paul Sampson
Brilliant (except for one thing)!
I've taken part in the Longleat 10k many times and I like the event. This year one aspect marred my enjoyment. I ordered (& paid for) a T shirt in advance. This process included specifying my size (Large) . When I went to collect the shirt there weren't any large shirts, How can that be given that you knew how many shirts of each size had been ordered in advance?

Brutal course but this race has become an annual tradition / addiction. Love the staff, the setup and the merch.
It'd be good if there was a longer finish line and clear directions for the 3milers as a I almost trampled a kid who cut across me last minute. Secondly, and I know this could increase the race entry costs, but it'd be nice to have different coloured bibs based on your predicted time along with pens. Too many times have I started this race and people start walking after the first 100m up the hill. This creates a bit of a bottleneck for those who want to push on. Finally, more toilets would be great!
Kerry White
Humbling
It would be nice to make the most of the day and journey and beable to enjoy the zoo once the race is done especially for the children that take part
clair smith
Love this race, but hilly but lovely scenery
David Didau
Loved it - some very challenging climbs but equally great downhill sections
Julie Cullen
Always fun despite the hills! A great event.
Lovely to have the metal medals back - thank you. A pity the 1st, 2nd and 3rd winners of each age group are not recognised any more. We used to get a plaque or similar but now I'm over 60 we don't seem to receive anything anymore, which is sad - particularly as us 'oldies' still have to put in the effort!
