The usual well organised and friendly event from the Hare & Tortoise Team
A great event with a friendly and supportive atmosphere. A good selection of food and drinks on offer and the hot chilli after running for 11 hours was very much appreciated. I always enjoy the H&T events and would definitely recommend to fellow runners.
A great friendly event in beautiful surroundings
I’m sure you’ve heard it before but a technical t-shirt instead of a medal would be good.
Well done to all the staff who were brilliant on the two days.
Thanks for your feedback Lee - we have explored the technical tee as an alternative in the past and whilst some runners said that this would suit them, most people said that they just love a blingy medal! Unfortunately the cost of small/low orders for things like technical tee's means that it can be prohibitively expensive. We have introduced the option for a technical tee instead of a medal for some of our other events where the order volume makes it viable! Funnily enough though - 90% of people still went for a medal and just added a tee as an additional item!! Maybe that says something about our medals... ;-)
Are H&T the Best? Without Doubt.
From the moment I arrived everything was friendly, relaxed and put me at ease. There were nerves, partly because it was my first 12hr event, but any anxiety was immediately alleviated by the lovely host, great participants and overall fantastic atmosphere. Add to this the best stocked aid station I’ve ever encountered and the greatest bling you’ll ever be likely to recieve, H&T must hold the title as the best!!
Great organisation even better people.
Most excellent
This was a fantastic event, everything was well thought out. Fascilities were excellent. The food provided was also very good. It was a fabulous atmosphere, very friendly.
All so friendly
A superb event from start to finish. The organisation was so friendly and efficient, the aid station had loads of food and the medal was one of the best I have seen.
Wo derful Experience

The Best!
Great organization,Always such a lovely team running these events.
The snacks and food during races bas always been fantastic.
I would recommend to everyone.
I thought it was excellent and can’t think of anything to change.
Thank you all once more for your organisation and friendly atmosphere.
Excellent
Nothing else to say! Excellent as always , glad to be a part of a special event for all types of runners.
The course was beautiful but not easy as there were areas very uneven which was tough on the feet and legs but the set up, atmosphere, fun and support more than made up for it. I’m elated!
I think the description could be better. The value for money is incredible but I had no idea until I joined you… the flags, set up, route directions, aid station, all the food and drink and party…!
It’s one of the more expensive events I’ve done but by far the most value for money.. tell everyone!
And your team are all worth your weight in gold. Thank you
I'm not good with phrases, but it's always a good event.
It's been suggested to me from runners that you should emphasise the amount of support you give to runners on this event - pizza, chili, cheesy beans, tea & coffee, great medal and goody bag. All of the is far above other events. Make more of a promotion of this and change the date to a different bank holiday and the event will continiue to be a winner. Thanks Pete & Bev always love your events as you well know. See you at the next one. Andy
Awesome event in every way
The organisers really put their heart and soul into this event. The atmosphere, scenery, support, venue and motivation is first class.
Your usual fantastic H & T event!
Had a great time at this event. The set up and everything was faultless as usual and the organisers and helpers are very friendly and make you feel right at home from beginners to the more experienced. A great event for those looking to beat their PB over distance or just try something new.
Brilliant event
Superb organisation, encouragement, crew, selection of food and drink on offer throughout. Just a shame it wasn't better supported by people running. It's an ideal entry level event, or a great event if you want to increase you're distance pb or gain and get lots of "time on feet"
Great weekend everyone so helpful and friendly
Great event. Very inclusive
Great challenge lovely atmosphere and support
Great race - everything you could want from a 24hr
The race team were, as always, very friendly and helpful. They had thought of everything to ensure the event went smoothly. Was generously catered for.
