The only point that I would make for the organisers is that I feel you could have emphasised more strongly that this is a self navigation event. I had noted that GPX routes and printed instructions were available and also the comment that it was predominantly self navigation. My view is that it was totally self navigation and without either GPX guidance or written instructions it is a very difficult route.
Other than that, fantastic, thank you.

Coffee van at the start would be extra lovely.
Everything else fantastic.
And every room in the village hall led to another toilet! No queues!!

just a big thank you to all your marshals,they were great today,i always ask for a decaf latae coffee at the food stations just for a laugh,always gets a giggle lol,im only doing 5 more marathons then retiring from marathon running,im always injured and cant run at my best.thanks for a great race.

Love this event. The route is stunning. All the marshalls were brilliant, great aid stations, good info & set up. Fab medal. Always a friendly atmosphere. Thank you

A fabulous event - thanks to all the check point marshalls and event team.

A nice mix of roads, trails, woods, fields, hills and flats.

Thank you so much for another fantastic half marathon
You have such great smiling supportive marshals!
Everything from the pre-run information, to registration, briefing, Aid stations and finish line; were so well organised
Great goodie bag and beautiful middle at the end… What more could you ask for?
Thank you x

It’s just a really brilliant event.

Well organised, friendly and a beautiful course!

Only issue was the overgrowth towards the end when possibly a sign or two would have been super helpful

Cannot recommend this event highly enough. Everything from Pre event communication, set up and briefing at start, food / water stops on route, the route/event, the medal and t-shirts all was amazing. Special thanks go to the volunteers and event organisers for putting on such a great event. One I would definitely do again. Thank you

Really great event. Superb organisation and always such friendly events. The route and scenery were lovely.

I only just made it 20 mins before cut off but the finish line marshalls/organisers made it feel as special as if I'd won, applauding in the last few of us. Loved it, thank you so much. I will definitely be booking with Hare and Tortoise again!

Thanks Pete, Bev and team for a wonderful event. I have now run the marathon or half 5 times under 3 different organising companies, and it remains a well-organised, friendly event in the true spirit of trail running. One piece of constructive criticism: you need a check-point, marshal, or at least a sign, in Stratford St Mary at the point where the marathon and half marathon routes diverge. Chatting to other runners afterwards it was apparent that some 'half' runners had followed the marathon route here (adding about an extra mile to their run). And conversely, it would have been easy for a marathon runner to inadvertently follow the half runners here and accidentally miss out that mile.
