In full: Well done to Brian and DRR for putting on such a brilliant race. Everything was perfect from the HQ to the traffic free course. Also well done to all the marshalls, there were loads on the course all smiling and encouraging the runners.

In short: Excellent Race - Wonderful Marshalls and Organisation 10/10
In full: From arrival to departure a very well organised race. Would have been good to have a few more runners but this race was re-scheduled from January because of weather. Some hilly parts but the last four miles very fast and flat except the last half mile to the finish. Nice mix of good club runners and enthusiastic newbies to running - all very welcome ! Enjoyed it 100% especially the latter stages - leaves you with a very good feeling all-round. Marshalls were the most friendly ever - great advert for the club ! Gorgeous medal, tasty banana and a super morning out.

In short: Amazing race! a perfect London marathon warm up!
In full: An amazing race! First time at this race for me. Dartford road runners put such effort and drive in!
They are really friendly, which would make me want to try there club some day?
Beautiful medal! probably the best this year!
Would recommend this event as its so well organised! But I would say its for the experienced runner only and it has lots of hills that would be to much for a new b.
see you again next time! thanks for a great morning!

In short: Very good event
In full: The second time ive run this race and I enjoyed it just as much. Can't fault the organization of the event. The only problem was the lack of runners. This was probably due to this being re-arranged and other events on the same day. There were a few occasions where it felt like I was out on my own! It's a shame as this is a very good race and I hope more runners enter next year.........I know I will!

In short: Laid back event this year but with the Kent countryside thrown in as a back-drop, why would you want to miss this race. Excellent friendly and encouraging marshalling, changing facilities, parking, bag collection.Will be back next year.

In full: A big thank you to Dartford road runners for persevering with the organisation of this race. Good value entry, plentiful parking and toilets, scenic undulating course, quality medal and perfect weather! Honestly couldn't fault it as a pre-marathon spin. Will be back.
