A great race as always.

I liked the altered course around the Needles, perhaps consider making it a permanent change.

Wonderful, I'll definitely be back

Thank you so much to all the Marshals, each and everyone of them was amazing from start to finish, so encouraging and fun.

This is by far the best running event. Thank you so much West Wight Sports Centre ☺️

Tough half-marathon course but well worth doing for scenery, friendliness and organisation, and the helpfulness of all stewards/organiseres.

The most beautiful half marathon I have ever done.

I am saying friendly to beginners as although a tuff one. For one of my friends it was her first half and fir tge other her first trail. The encouragement and the way they were looked after was fantastic. We will be back. Lucy from Ashford and District x

Very enjoyable

The only negative is the price for parking when you want to be there early.

Organiser comment:

Thanks for your feedback - we do offer free event parking supported by a nearby local business; we will make sure to promote this more in future!

Absolutely Brilliant

There's no denying this is one of the toughest races out there. But the friendliness of everyone, the brilliant organisation and the scenery made it one of my absolute favourites too

Excellent Trail run experience

Well organised with plenty of marshals. Rain made the muddy sections a bit of a challenge and the briefing informed runners to take care.

A proper cross-country race

Fields, gravel tracks, narrow woody paths, grass tracks, marshes.....basically everything. Not too hilly fir West Wight but challenging. Brilliantly marshalled and supported. And all profits goes to the local sports centre which is not council funded, so this event really supports the community.
