Dover. Lovely harbour/marina run.
Maybe consider earlier start so as not to annoy the locals especially as I would expect the running group to get bigger.
Mervyn Hatch
Superb
Early start as it got very hot and busy later on
Lois Bennett
Really well organised
Really well organised event, marshals and volunteers were brilliant and the atmosphere was amazing.
Pins to attach your bibs were a nice touch! Supporters also commented on how enjoyable it was and especially like people being mentioned as they crossed the finish line.
Greg Holman
Stunning run along the seafront
Perfect for any runner, any ability.. great for a PB if the wind isn’t too strong
Daniel Baker
A good well organised event.
Only thing I would change would be start time to say 9 o clock as both years it’s been very hot and sea fro t gets very busy on a Sunday and it’s the last Sunday of the summer holidays!
David Hoile

Good event lovely views friendly encouraging Marshals
Jonathan Sargood
Flat and fast 10k by the sea.
Natalie Taylor
Well organised, loved the medal
Good to have numerous toilet facilities and refreshment options. Parking was a bit of a challenge.
Ally Knight
Lovely Flat Route
Ran this last year and was pleased to see it back for this year.
Lovely two lap route, with great views. Well organised with enthusiastic volunteers full of encouragement all the way round.
Hope to see it back again for next year.

Great event - my first one!
Prompt instructions. Map could do with showing where Registration was (says Race HQ but I'm a first timer, didn't know whether that also meant Reg). Completely missed the water station at the start of the second lap! 0900h start may be better, less hot, less public on the route. Fab medal! Thank you ❤️
Louise Humphrys
Very good course, toilet facilities were good, clean, and respectable, good sence of achievement, great support from marshal, very informative, well sign posted, all round great experience.
Maybe start earlier, lots of people about, and it was hot, fantastic medal, well chuffed
Charlotte Flannery
Flat route, great scenery, friendly Marshalls and I loved the medal!
Maybe start at 9am as less busy and hot.
Perry Edwards
Very good vibes, great for PB’s, and nice and flat
Kirsty Harper
Great iconic route under the White Cliffs and a constant sea view - with an amazing medal to finish
Colin King
Great fast course with plenty to keep you interested.
Is there anyway you can display individual running clubs on the results page?
Warren Uden
A fantastic route.
Two loops of the pier and curve add stunning views to this flat and fast 10k. Recommend to all abilities.
After a late 10am start, the marshalls did brilliantly keeping the runners going through the busy crowds. (Something to possibly change)
Simon Parrott
Excellent event for any ability.
Great communication leading up to the event. This is a 2 lap course along the Dover seafront. Lots of support from the volunteers throughout the event and one I will definitely do again.
Amanda Punnett
Fantastic costal 10k, would highly recommend and will definitely be doing it next year! Open to all abilities ! Amazing!
Anne Mannering
A well organised first event for Dover which I hope will be staged again for 2024.
I only ran the first lap so was able to see the finishers come in. I did notice a handful of runners got a litter confused on the second lap around the Marina. Maybe the route could be made clearer, and a map of the route included in the confirmation email.

Scenic flat route - good for PBs
Needed more marshals at junction points, given that some racers were sent in the wrong direction and run extra distances. Junctions were a little complicated and two lengths of the new pier was a little boring.
