Great spring race
My first time doing the island run and really enjoyed it, I liked how they started you off in different waves to the start line, it was well organised and weather was good just on the windy side.
Great Location & atmosphere
Fantastic event and course which was really well organised and a huge thanks to the Marshals for volunteering and guiding the runners. My only critique would be to potentially put water stations for the 10k on either side of the triangle section as some of the runners coming back were nearly colliding with other runners when getting water.
Great on the way down painful on return
I just wondered when I get my time messaged
Great event, great views loved it.
A bag or jumper drop would have been really helpful
Great run, take part every year. I do prefer it in May though rather than March.
Good event
Suggest not hosting it the day the clocks go forward next time.
Also, the loop at the end is very morale sapping- much better to have that at the beginning of the race than the end!
A bit too early this year.
This year's Island Run was brought forward to March.
We were treated to a lovely sunny morning but the cold headwind on the return leg made for heavy going.
Hopefully it will go back to it's annual time of the year for 2026.
Was very nice & everyone was very friendly
Great Run
Loved the views running along the sea wall, thanks to the volunteers and the organisers for their help on the day
Who ordered the headwind?
Enjoyed great run for fun
Enjoyable and well organised event on a friendly course.
Excellent course for a PB
Nice course along the coast, with good facilities.
A well organised event
Nice flat course
Flat course with amazing coastal views
Great run - well marshaled but wave 1 was too large, was very congested along sea wall at start you didn't get to see/hear marshals at top of slope by church (where you go down to road, and back up again by the small casino) pointing out the metal trip hazard and some poor soul went down big time.
Great event. Could have started earlier but this was only because of the heat. Would do it again.
Flat and hot with lovely views
Great marshalling, easy to locate, ample parking. Could do with an earlier start as it did get a tad warm
Fab atmosphere
My first official run with medal (yay) after injury, love jogging with sporting events and marshalling, always friendly people.
Maybe cone could be in original place near the motor homes path for 2 1/2k so you don't have to go past the slope to the finish for the last bit, just a suggestion. Or turn left first top of slope.
Enjoyable 10k
Start abit earlier 10:30 is too late should be 9:30 the latest
