Well organised, superb marshalling, great atmosphere with a lovely trail course.
Melanie Abbott
Great run.
Well organised with a great start/finish location that had toilets & a cafe for refreshments. Lots of parking.
Enjoyed the pre race warm up. The route was well marshalled and sign posted. Great to see so many locals supporting the runners. Love the kids race too.
Medal looks like a very cheap multipack from Amazon which was a shame. Also wasn’t set off by the fire brigade like advertised? Overall, I would definitely do again but would appreciate a better medal.

Cracking Local Event
If you want a trail 10k that offers the right amount of elevation to challenge you but also where you can put in a good time, then this is the event to do. Great weather for it today, marshalls were fantastic especially the one at the turnaround point! Just an all round great local event.
Simon Hillier
Great event - mixed trail and road - well organised and good atmosphere.
Christine Gibbons
Great 10k race - mostly on trails. Good parking and an excellent venue to have food and drink afterwards
There was regular updates by email from the race organisers prior to the race. This included the condition of the trails and what running shoes would be best to wear. These updates were most welcomed
Fiona Clifton
Lovely friendly event in beautiful Sussex countryside
Tom Frost
Fantastic little race.
Plenty of parking, loads of friendly marshals, great scenic course. No complaints from me. I had worried on the narrowness of the route and the mud but by the narrows sections was reached the field had spread out enough and I must have remembered it from the winter. All just about dry.
Graham Johnson
Lovely event, well organised
Really well marshaled, good medic cover, friendly event and a nice course
Lorna Dahl
Friendly event.
Parking well organised and did not intrude on the village. Lots of marshalls en route. Race took a while to start once we had walked to the start.

Was a bit apprehensive as not keen on x c but would describe this route as off road and a nice route.
