lovely event - great fun
only 2 adverse comments
1 parking - it took us 45mins to leave the event - which seemed a little crazy
2. a couple of people were running with their phones playing distorted tinny music. It was really unpleasant and spoiled the atmosphere. Could you ask people to use ear phones or something so as not to spoil it for the rest of us?
Very scenic fun run suitable for all abilities
Would be nice is there were staggered start times for the 7.4 k. It was extemely crowded for the first few km of the run.
Stunning route
Fun Run for whole family
We loved it. Difficult by times due to hills but I'd rather have them then not as it excuses the walking. We took the pram around which was hard but the run is a very friendly, open run. Lots of kids running which was great. Even the toddler in the pram got a medal at the finish line. :)
Awesome!
Such a lovely venue to run. Very well organised. Thank you for all your hard work.
Great day and beautiful route
Great event.
As with all events at Blenheim Palace getting in and out of the venue can prove frustrating.
A nice way to enjoy the park
The organisers should include the course elevation gain in the info, so participants know it's hilly!
Great event - lots of fun
Need more toilet facilities- no where near enough
Great day
Long queues leaving the event- made worst by drivers turning right at the exit - suggested remedy- …. Make all drivers turn left on leaving and people can double back at the first roundabout- it will keep traffic moving perhaps ??
Really lovely run and great venue
Maybe next year your could ask that anyone walking the race starts at the back. The beginning was very frustrating due to so many walkers!
And do I need to mention the exit? We did leave later so didn't encounter too many queues to leave but while we were picnicking the traffic leaving was awful lots of horn blowing.
Great event in such a lovely setting.
Thank you for a great event
Great experience, great atmosphere and it was a lovely run
Great day in a beautiful place
Good race ,long Hill
Good race. The long hill is not for everyone . Good you can stay in the park after with family or friends.
A fantastic event! Great atmosphere. Great to see so many charities present at Blenheim 7.4K.
Enjoyable hilly course
Get the dogs and the pushchair runners to go 10 mins before or after the rest of the runners set off as when the course narrowed it was hard for everyone to get through and maybe tell dog owners not to use extendable leads as some dogs that were on leads were about 12 foot from their owner. Apart from that it was great
Good event but with a few improvements needed
I would suggest improving access to the start line which was practically cordoned off from runners, providing a second water station and (as someone connected to an exhibitor) ensuring that exhibitors can park their vehicles next to the exhibition area for ease of access, packing/unpacking and to avoid having to queue with other exiting traffic just to set down a stand.
Great location, enjoyable event
Really enjoy the event. Great location. Pity about the heavy rain this year!
Could do with more directions/announcements before race started.
Seemed to be long queues for the toilets - perhaps more capacity needed.
Absolutely FANTASTIC for all the family. AAA++++++
Amazing organisation, great family atmosphere, beautiful surroundings and very lovely organisers. Simply couldn't recommend this run more highly. A must do. Thank you Blenheim XXXXXX
