You smashed it as always #dreamteam
I would’ve liked it if Mick had stuck to his commitment and parachuted me in from a helicopter with laser beams through the gun smoke

Amazing event
1st rate. Only my 2nd H&t event but absolutely amazing
Lysia Jiggins
Fantastic event
Well organised event, great atmosphere. The H&T team are brilliant.
I've run this event twice now and it feels like an appropriate way to mark Remembrance day. The event starts after the last post, a silence, the reveille and a gun shot from the 7th Parachute Regiment Royal Horse Artillery. Then we all stopped at 11am to observe 2 minutes silence. Very respectfully done.
On a practical level, good signage, nice route, lots of snacks and amazing medals.

Amazing first event with this organiser
Would highly recommend, very relaxed atmosphere, supportive and encouraging. It’s not often that you feel everyone taking part recognises the effort of everyone else. Super friendly event. Well done to the organisers for creating such a welcoming atmosphere

Friendly, well organised, and Freddo Frogs at the end!!!!
The people who run these events have got it spot on - it feels like a valid, worthy race if that's what you're interested in, but the slower runners get huge amounts of encouragement too. Super friendly organisers and participants. For the Remembrance run, the gun salute and piper add a huge amount of gravitas and make it feel very special. And of course, the medal designs are amazing.

Amazing Organisation and friendly as always
Superb organisation, friendly and medal is out of this world. All for an amazing cause too. Highly recommend Hare & Tortoise running events, welcoming and caring team
Victoria Darnell
Another fabulous event from the H&T team. The touches of the last post, gun salute and two minutes silence mid race and of course a stunning medal as always meant a special event to take part in. Pete and Bev are so friendly & really make you feel welcome
Sylvia Whalley
Fantastic
Loved this run , so respectful with the army charity being present, the last post being played, and the two minute silence out on the course at 11am .
Beautiful medal and great snacks .
Charlotte Williams
A great run
It was a tough 10.7 k loop...but the scenario was fabulous and there was a great atmosphere and community feel.

Friendly runners - good course - good organisation of race.
Angela Rowe
Great organisation, lovely course and fab medal
A really well organised event with the added bonus of knowing you are supporting such a fantastic charity, The Airborne Gunners Trust.
Everyone is so welcoming and supportive and the fuelling station was great as was the medal. The views over the river on the course are beautiful and take your mind off that long stretch along the sea wall!
This was my second H&T event and I will certainly be booking some more.

Well organised and amazing medal!
Love the H&T events as so well organised, great support with fab fuelling stations and topped off with the best medals.
I saw this as an opportunity to run my first half marathon and although Brightlingsea is a challenging course and I love the no pressure approach. Far more enjoyable than a normal start and finish line half marathon.

Very professional and friendly set up.
Gary Edwards
A wonderful friendly event
I thoroughly enjoyed the whole day. What topped it off, being an veteran, to hear the last post being played before the start of the run was just brilliant and the young lady should be very proud of herself
Claire Anderson
Love the concept of the tortoise and the hare as mixed abilities and fantastic medal. Friendliness event I’ve been to. Thank you
Barbara Law
Beautiful views of river. Good course
The reason I didn't rate it higher for value is basically I'm a tight wad and know I can run there anytime. I'm also not a bling medal collector. It was however a great medal and I rated it highly for all other aspects.
