Well organised with a good mixture on elevation.

LM EVENTS are a true asset to the local community. Offering quality affordable races for the experienced and beginner. Would thoroughly recommend.

Nice friendly event.

Would be really helpful if the Marshal at the turn around point would tell runners to keep left, as we had participants running towards us and when I asked if we should keep left I was told she didn’t know.

Good organisation, cheerful marshalls

The course was well marked and plenty of cheerful marshalls. Loved the one with the tambourine!

Very well run and marshalled event with a lovely run along the seafront but there are some horrendous hills to climb!

testing but fab race

would like distance markers on route but not a deal breaker and maybe send off in waves as was crowded on the paths till it got spread out. It was an enjoyable event thankyou

A lovely run for my first non-virtual 10k

Luckily my usual 5k run starts with a hill so not totally unprepared but it was nowhere near the relentless (and seemingly endless) hill at a mile and a half. Don’t be afraid to power walk the beast.

Picturesque & a couple of steep bits

Fabulous route through the Byes alongside the river Sid - Salcombe hill gets the pulse going somewhat, & then the esplanade running by the sea, what could be better! Another climb up Salcombe before you're on the home straight, much better than a flat course.
Well organised & marshalled as usual - recommended!

Beautiful location

Great event, mostly flat tarmac route. Has a couple of testing short hills. Very friendly with plenty of marshalling making it simple to follow. Will definitely be doing again.

Well organised with wonderful marshalls

I would have loved to have Mike markers so you could see how far it was as we went along.

Interesting.

Traffic passing at the start line made it very difficult to hear what was being said. Lack of starting waves meaning everyone just set off and a very narrow first mile made it near on impossible to get going, especially with people running in groups taking up the entire path. Very few marshals along the route, with 2 very large steep hills. Advertised as a good route for beginners and PBs, the above made it very difficult. No road closures which caused for obstacles. The bridge over the Ford wasn’t being managed very well, there were families walking across taking up the whole bridge meaning runners had to stop. No marshals along the seafront meaning you had to dodge people for the whole length.. including small children on scooters and dogs.
On returning back towards the finish line the Byes were incredibly busy and many walkers with dogs off their leads, again making runners stop time and time again.
I’m very aware the whole route was a public route but for the £21 entry fee I would expect a little more than what I experienced today. Really disappointed.

A tough 10k

Very busy with non runners, particularly on the sea front.
