Brutal, but fun.
Kudos to the lovely marshals, I think I was better off running it than standing around in some of those positions.

Great event in spectacular scenery
The marshals did an amazing job in very cold blustery conditions. They were great at encouraging you to keep going. One marshal told me where I was in the women's race which spurred me on.
Dan Wilkinson
Loved it
Glyn Jenkins
A very good safety briefing given
The wind was storm force but the course was well marshalled
Kate McClelland
Wonderful, I'll definitely be back
Thank you all so much. Lovely, friendly atmosphere, great marshals, spectacular views en route. Loved the cheering at the end with a mince pie and mulled wine. Will definitely be back.

It was chilly, it was hilly! Views amazing. Marshall’s amazing. Really good organisation.

Great event, Marshalls where great.
Live monitoring was great, but a little inconsistent. One every mile on the mile or at least one on the 5 mile mark for the family and friends monitoring.
Thank you so much for your comments and feedback on the live tracking - we’re really pleased to hear you enjoyed the feature! We completely understand the desire for more consistent timing points, especially around key milestones like every mile or the 5-mile halfway mark. We’re proud to offer live on-course tracking for family and friends at Race HQ as part of enhancing the race-day experience, and it’s something we continue to invest in. That said, the unique terrain that makes the Chilly Hilly so special, with much of it crossing beautiful off-road sections and National Trust land, also limits where we can safely place timing mats. These mats require vehicle access for setup and maintenance, which just isn’t possible in some of our most scenic spots. That being said, we’re always exploring creative and practical ways to improve. We’ll definitely take your suggestions into account as we review options for the next event. Thank you again for helping us make the Chilly Hilly even better!

A well-organised event, beautiful scenery and wonderful marshals!
Neil Bishop
Excellent fun. Great route, great hills and plenty of wind, headwind and sidewinder that is!
Really well organised event. Definitely not easy, but great fun nonetheless.
Jessica Olden
My favourite event
Wild and windy, always a challenging route. Great communication and organisation, Marshalls are fab and would 100% recommend this route! See you next year
David Aked
Hilly, windy and lots of fun!
Lindsey Sothcott
Hard work
I think this run was my hardest so far! With the strong winds and the hills I was struggling! It's a fantastic run for views, well organised and great volunteers cheering us on all the way round!
