Brilliant
Very impressed with the organisation, every event i have attended has been really well organised, huge credit to the team involved
Amazing event
Really well organised lovely people thank you
Great event, well organised
Always get a good vibe at sporting Events runs that I have participated in. Good friendly atmosphere
Nice flat half marathon with beautiful view of the sea
Thanks for organising
Great coastal run
I thoroughly enjoyed the challenging hill at the end of the race. It truly tested our endurance and determination. The short hill finish at Whitstable Castle is always a formidable challenge, but the sense of accomplishment upon reaching the summit makes it all worthwhile.
Very Enjoyable Half marathon
Loved it!
Best event of the year
Can’t beat the Saxon shore half. Do miss the Bishopstone to Whitstable castle route (when it was from the KingsHall) But understand why with the 10k being now included. Always a good atmosphere and finishing at the castle is much better. Great signage, water stations, Marshalls in all the right places and great encouragement from them and members of the public. Looking forward to doing it again next year.
Great event in a nice location
Didn’t really rate the two lap plan - wouldn’t preferred “there and back”
Very enjoyable
Really enjoyed it apart from the final hill which is an absolute killer! Great organisation and lots of encouragement on the way
Lovely setting for any race
Whilst the scenery is lovely, the two loops for the Half Marathon is a bit demoralising. One of the Marshall stations was unmanned on the second loop which just felt like we'd be given up on! And the uphill to cross the finish line was an unwelcome sight - and seemed unnecessary, a slightly longer loop at Hampton and the Half Marathon could have finished on the flat (the same as the 10K)
Thanks for the great feedback. Do you know which marshal point didn't have marshals second time around? The Half Marathon and the 10k finished in exactly the same place inside the Castle.
Good event, well organised
The hill twice was a drag
Beautiful route, well organised race.
Lovely route. Very good Marshall.
There should be no cut off time.
Well organised, beautiful location and super encouragement from the Marshalls - (plus great weather!)
Fantastic experience
Excellent event.
Great marshal's
Good information sharing
Great day
Well run event.
The Marshalls were very supportive, kind and encouraging.
The course was generally gentle and the sea views pleasant.
One area that could have gone better was the Mile Marking for the 1/2 Marathon. It was unclear and confusing and perhaps something to look at for next year.
As a first timer in Whitstable I’ll definitely consider doing it again next year.
Well run. Great support.
A great relatively flat half marathon. Superb for beginners. Support from all fabulous.
As usual very well organised many thanks
Well organised, great fun
As its in the summer and quite warm, I'd perhaps recommend one or two water extra water stations perhaps. Otherwise everyone was really helpful and friendly
