Sporting Events UK
Excellent event for both 5k and 10k for all ages and abilities.
First class crew running the event and some awesome coffee from Karma Coffee
Lovely coastal run
My local run

Great Event
Enjoyed running with my Grandad.
A well organised event
Great event - the wibd makes you work harder
We both really enjoyed this event .
My first time, great experience
A friendly event
Shame on Swale Council for giving out parking tickets. I know this has nothing to do with Sporting Events, wanted to mention their poor attitude
Well organised event, very helpful staff. Nice flat route along the sea wall, a great race for beginners to those chasing a PB!
Fantastic stewards, great atmosphere and wonderful run
Thank you for the experience
Great Island Run
Fab atmosphere. Thanks to all who helped organise. Look forward to next year
Great event for a first timer
Great event
Loved the route and atmosphere.
Need to cancel the headwind for next year
Enjoyable
This was a well organised event but I did find that many of the marshals were quite miserable!! They were either chatting to each other or someone else and didn’t seem interested in the runners at all. I realise that they are all volunteers but it makes such a difference to have cheerful, friendly marshals along the route.
A great experience, will do it again next year!
Really enjoyed it, and would definitely recommend to others. It's nice to have a race local to me, instead of having to travel for.
Fabulous flat course, beginner friendly
Very well organized collecting the bibs all put in an envelope with safety pins and chip . Lots of free parking and great views I will recommend to everyone
Excellent race but.
The race ticked all the boxes for me, but there are quite a few trip hazards in places, my friend fell which caused me to stop suddenly, this was caused by a raised pavement on a bend in the shade so pretty invisible at 7.8km so hobbled for the next 1km before getting back up to pace.
But a great day was had by all.
Family friendly run
Start time was good allows you to make a relaxed journey to race, easy parking, would like a bag drop / some portaloos, the last 1 km turn point is tough as you run past the finish before starting last 1km maybe it could be adjusted, but friendly easy to start and get going, maybe just keep waves strictly limited to run start times to allow runners to run to their potential
