Hi, I just wanted to say thank you for really enjoyable event last week. The atmosphere was great, relaxing & inclusive. I have just looked at the photos & everyone is truly smiling & laughing as they come over the finish line. I got soaked by the huge wave as I came over the finish line, which made me laugh as I thought I would dip in the sea at the end to relax my legs!
I have been a race director in the past, so appreciate the amount of work that goes into these events, the waking up at 4am remembering something! I appreciated the fact that there was extra signage & the hedges were recently cut back in some areas as well as the well stocked feed stations.
My husband would also like to thank the marshal who kindly helped him when he became really cold as we walked to the car ( school boy error, he didn't change his kit at the end as we ate the cheese sandwiches)
Definitely be back again next year. Thanks again. CT
Hi Kevin and Janice,
Just a quick note to say thanks and to tell you how much I enjoyed the Weavers’ Way last weekend.
The care, passion, organisation and enthusiasm you demonstrated for the event was second to none and I hope that you felt that it was as successful and rewarding as all of us runners did. MB
Morning guys,
Just about recovered now haha. Wanted to say thanks for a brilliant day really enjoyed myself and it's nice when it all goes right.
The weather was perfect, and everyone involved at the start, checkpoints, finish etc really did a brilliant job. Congratulations on a perfect start to your race directing careers. TM
Hi
Just wanted to say a massive thank you for today's Weavers Way 50k. We thoroughly enjoyed it, was very well organised and supportive throughout & really hope to do more of your future races! Well done! 🎉 JB
Hi Janice,
I’ve just arrived back home after a wonderful race and while I’m still conscious I wanted to send a very heartfelt thank you to you and Kevin for putting on a great event for the first time.
I also really appreciate you letting me enter so late, I did not expect to end up winning my distance so it is profoundly appreciated.
I hope you both can manage some rest yourselves in the coming days. Pat yourselves on the back, I had a great time. DH
Dear Janice and Kevin,
Firstly, I hope you’ve managed to get some rest since Saturday?
Having been involved in organising races (not on the same scale) and working at many events I am all to aware of the sheer volume of work that goes into every tiny detail of a race. Most of which we, the athletes, never get to see. I hope you know that even if people didn’t say it, they will have appreciated it.
I had a great day. Stunning conditions, wonderful course, super friendly marshals along the way (please especially pass on my thanks to tail end cyclists Chris and Mark for their company – interestingly, both of them asked me if I wanted to be left alone or have them near me which was a very thoughtful thing to ask), cracking medal and online tracking to make it easier for on-course and remote supporters. That said, I felt utterly broken at the end with the worry about making the cutoff and the sheer exhaustion of the day. I was left wondering how I did SDW50 an hour quicker in April!!!
I hope the event grows and if it does, I know that you’ll build on a successful inaugural event.
Best wishes to you both and thank you again. MC
Just wanted to say thanks to you both and all the wonderful volunteers for yesterday.
Was a great choice to use the Weavers Way. Perfect showcase of Norfolk and living on the route myself (Alborough), it was a treat to take part in an event running through my village.
I thought it was flawlessly prepared for with excellent helpful signage. Even though I knew the route well, it was still nice to just settle into the running and not think too much!!
Particularly as a vegan, I was very well catered for, much more so than most other events. The checkpoints were well stocked, clearly marked, and the volunteers knew what was suitable which was so reassuring. Although i couldn't quite face more than a bit of toast at the end, I realise there was some great options for me there too.
Volunteers were brilliant throughout and seemed to be having as good a time as me (maybe even better!).
And your communication throughout was swift, friendly and helpful.
Thanks so much. I'm expecting great things in the future from you. Looking forward to your next event! DL
Just a quick note to say thank you for an amazing event yesterday. It was my first ultra and certainly won’t be my last.
The organisation was first class. The route was well laid out and it was comforting to know there were aid stations along the way.
Everyone involved was so friendly and full of enthusiasm. Hearing the marshalls cheering me on really gave me some well needed encouragement! And it was great to chat with some of the other runners along the way.
Please pass on my thanks to the entire team.
See you at the next one. MC
A big personal thank you to you both for organising such a brilliant new Ultra on our door step.
It was a perfect day .
I know how much work you both have put in to getting this of the ground!
and from my point of view you made my 100th a very special Day ! RC
