My first ever race and enjoyed every moment, thank you

Would suggest positioning the PA behind the start line (or having extra speakers there) so people further back can hear instructions.

Fun event to be apart of. The hills can be a killer.

Route round the Harry Potter tree was very crowded. Toilets had long queues, could have done with more.

Really enjoyable - great route, lovely and a fantastic, friendly atmosphere

More toilet facilities and the urinals provided for the men were too open to view. Otherwise, it was a great event. First class. Stagger the starts better would be better as well.

Buggy run is a massive plus

Buggy run and kids run makes it really family friendly. One we will do every year is we can

Great event, fun run atmosphere but opportunities for the serious runner too.

Disappointing that some car drivers exited whilst some runners still on the road during the event

A picturesque run that was a little let down by some organisational issues.

It is great that you offer free parking, unfortunately the parking system was not very smooth. It took >35 minutes to park after passing through the entry. Could there be a way to prepare for the inevitable rush a little better?

There were not enough toilets. I waited almost 30 minutes and in doing so missed the opportunity to meet up with the charity I was running for. More toilets would have really helped avoid this.

The start was a little confusing as the race announcer could not easily be heard. It was however a nice start funnel once things got going.

Starting the dog runners before the regular runners was dangerous. I can see that starting them after would also create problems. It seems that you need to separate the two races by much longer, say 20-30 minutes to avoid the faster runners having to run through a large field of runners with dogs.

Running past the Harry Potter tree in theory is nice, however the track was quite muddy in places and I would have preferred we took a safer route.

This was an enjoyable event and I would consider running it again. With a few small adaptations it could be a very smooth day for all the participants.

Fun run in stunning country park

Good coffee stand! Registration was quick & easy. Only criticisms: long queue for toilet cubicles before the race (although no queue at urinals), and it would be nice if the welcome email explained how the race start is organised.

Great run in beautiful surroundings

Needed more toilets, end better organisation of the car park at the end.

Amazing atmosphere with chip timed running.

Absolutely wonderful event. Great atmosphere and even food stalls for an after run treat! Plenty of parking.

Pleasant run and challenge

Found everything great, except leaving the car park,could do with 2 exits, we decided to wait until most people had left which was about an hour, due to everyone rushing to get out

Great day, beautiful run

The warm up would be better if the instructor was more visible.

Hilly but great fun even in the rain

Pretty scenery and interesting route, some areas narrow but mostly wide enough to get past people when paces are different. Enjoyed this route even though I didn't realise it'd be hilly! One thing to improve was directing / improving flow of traffic - it took longer to leave the car park than for me to run the race

Lovely undulating run

Really well organised. I would just suggest that dog and buggy runners start either a longer time before or after the main runners. It was quite frustrating sometimes having to run around dogs and buggies, especially when the dogs were stopping suddenly and tripping you up! It just feels having half an hour between the start for those and main runners might be better and help spread everyone out more. Apart from that I really enjoyed the run.

Lovely scenic route, simple and friendly.

Could do with more toilets and maybe a text with my result. Also prizes for top 3 not just 1st. But overall a good event and will be back next year

A fun run in beautiful scenery that’s long enough for beginners

Would love to see more loos and some different/more food stalls.. healthy options?

Good event and scenery, hard course

The event was well organised, getting and parking at the venue was easy and well marshalled. The route itself was challenging with a few steep hills. The scenery was excellent as you would expect at Blenheim palace. Good mix of trail and road.
The only thing was that the course ran 500m extra than advertised.
