Brilliant organisation, friendly
Lovely cross country event - so glad it has returned - will definitely be back.
The only thing I was slightly miffed about was that the lady who got a trophy for 3rd place, was also first in the V60 category and got the trophy for that as well. So she took home 2 identical trophies, as did the first placed lady who also won the V50 trophy. A lot of races give the age category trophy to the next placed person in that category. So you could have made 2 other ladies extremely happy. Yes - I was that 2nd lady in the V60 category!! Only slightly miffed though - it was a lovely race - thank you.

Well organised and easy to park
A few gremlins appear to be in the results. Someone who was ahead of me at the start, I overtook, he finished after me but is two minutes ahead of me in the results
Many thanks for your comments Chris. We are sorry there was a results mix-up and will discuss with race timing team.
Peter McKeag
Very enjoyable race
Parking is always difficult in Slinfold, so well done on managing the traffic!
Great local race. So glad it is back.
Magdalena King
Brilliant event, lovely village feel
I did not anticipate the run to start with a climb, don't think this is a great way to get beginners motivated. Puts you at a disadvantage straight off.
Katie Hancock
Fun

Matthew Horne
Very enjoyable, friendly, well organised race. Great location with a demanding but scenic route.
Andrew Jenkins
Lovely race atmosphere. Will definitely do again
Some suitable bike parking would be helpful
Christopher Wood
Great weather and great course.
Claire Lovell
Fantastic lock event
Jim Minogue
A great event!
Look forward to doing it again next year. Maybe a different route rather than going round twice would be nice.
Adam Collard
Lovely 10k in a wonderful part of Sussex
I would look again at how numbers are given out - there was confusion in the results and the awards.
Many thanks for your comments. We had an unforeseen timing issue and this had a knock-on effect. We are reviewing everything and are making changes for 2026 to improve the race organisation.
