Well organised and great fun. Beautiful location.

There could have been a few more signs at strategic points along the route. I went the wrong way a couple of times and I wasn't the only one!

Well organised, welcoming and clear.

This is my second time running the Durham Coastal half marathon. I’ve really enjoyed it both times and hope to run it again next year. My only additional request is for cooler weather; perhaps you could manage that for next year?!

Challenging but fun

I managed to finish the Urban Trail series on my 2nd attempt. It's a great mix of race lengths and locations that took me to many places I have never visited before, but have been back since. The only reason for not doing the series again this year is the first race always coincides with my wedding anniversary!!

Nice scenic route

Marshals were fantastic, however signage for routes and bus stop could have been a little better

Very friendly and rather challenging. Good atmosphere and excellent facilities in the sports centre

Couple of the way marks were a little ambiguous

Very friendly fun race

I loved that you could enter this up until the weekend before and it took you on some lovely trails in Durham. There was plenty of parking and toilets and somewhere warm pre and post race to go if needed. Everyone was so friendly and encouraging, really laid back vibe. Route was well signposted..really didn’t need the route on my watch but it was great to have been sent the route for it aswell. The only negative/room for improvement was prize giving. On the website it said it would be at 12 but on going at 11:55 I was told it had already been done and that they always aim to do it 20-25 mins after prize winners have finished, as though I should have known this already, and I was left apologising for not having been there even though I didn’t know this…the event schedule just needs to be amended to reflect this because if I had known I would have waited around rather than gone back to the car to get warm clothes thinking I had to wait around for 35-40 minutes.

Fantastic 10 mile trail race.

We were so pleased to see multiple photos of ourselves uploaded that same day taken by the photographers who were situated around the route. Well done, it's the little things that make the day!

Great run, beautiful, well marked trails and super friendly and encouraging volunteers. Fantastic!

One very narrow out and back section but this was short and manageable. Otherwise, incredible event. Thanks very much!
