Great organisation and great venue, mostly friendly staff
Guy Holbrow
Friendly local race but just enough water stations, especially for a hot day in June!
James Pottle
Very enjoyable event.
Friendly/ helpful marshals, good atmosphere and I will be back next year!
Luke James
Happy challenge even with the hills
Little confused as to why the route takes you across the hills. This being said the atmosphere and organisation like all the events was great
Chris Brett
Fantastic 10k route with beautiful views
Once again a very well organised event by sporting events uk, the atmosphere was amazing and incredible support to go along with the beautiful scenery of the whitstable coastline. Great route for beginner runners as mostly flat and experienced runners alike and only a slight uphill finish, will definitely return next year .

Nice 10k route, glad I didn’t have to go round again for the Half.
Well organised and marshalled. Two laps for the half must have been tough and marshalling at the gate could have been stronger (lead male almost directed round for a third time). Could have down with a Marshall before to stream people so not a last minute call at gate entrance. I found the 10k a bit expensive. That said, I’d do it again.
Stuart Adams
Well organised as always
Nice race with a good amount of flat but a sprinkle of elevation to add a challenge. Well marshalled and organised with a nice medal at the end.
This was my 3rd or 4th time and next year will be on the cards again.

Don't tell people on the day that only bone conducting headphones are allowed, when you failed to mention this in any of your event emails.

Another good event by Barry and team
Challenging with the weather, but good marshalling/water stations/makes great use of the castle…back for more next year
Peter Rossiter

A few hills.
Well done every one,
Esme Pooke
Great run and scenery just a lack of resources
Really enjoyed the run it was a lovely day - it's just for a day that was really hot there was a 'water' station at the 5k point and you were handed a half cup of water!! Then when you finish (did the 10k) you were only offered another cup which you could re-fill - but still - surely a bottle of water would have been covered in your running fee?!!

Potential to be a really nice event
Water stations poorly managed...
Under staffed and difficult to grab.
