RunThrough Events Reviews 958

I’ve taken part in several events organised by RunThrough, and every time the experience has been excellent. The events are always well organised, the volunteer staff are friendly and supportive, and the medals are fantastic. I would highly recommend RunThrough to anyone considering entering a race.

First of all, the course was magnificent. An amazing (and very challenging) route along Derwent Water and then up up up to High Spy and down again across Maiden Moor and the tough descent after Catbells, but ALL of it (including the low bits) with stunning views. Good start/finish area. Great volunteers who were keen to help and offer advice. Well organized and excellent communication by the event staff. The finishers "medal" is made from local material, and comes with instructions on how to remove the ribbon and use the disk as a coaster! I couldn't be MORE satisfied with an event of this nature.

Finally, the other runners were a delight and good company -- encouraging each other on the tougher parts and taking pictures.

I have to say after doing my 5th run-through event the staff and setup is amazing 👏 🤩 all so friendly and make it really easy to get sorted cant wait for my next one I won't be stopping anytime soon 🤩

First experience of having an event organised by RunThroughEvents - really well done - everyone was very friendly and helpful.
Only comment was we couldn't hear the lady when talking on the stage for the warm up before the Half Marathon.
Would definitely go to another event organised by RunThrough.

I have been to two of run through events and have enjoyed both, they were both well run ample parking good course all staff helpful and urging the runners on no matter what distance you are doing
Very enjoyable

Well organised and thought out I enjoyed it
However would have been nice if there were officials on trail who could hand out water and other support items
Overall very good event

Great Organisation. Well organised , supported and enjoyable event. All went to plan. Course was changed due to bad weather and this was communicated well. Nice medal and goodies at the end.

I ran the Regents Park 10k on Saturday 11 April 2026 and as always found the whole event to be incredibly well organised . As always there were plenty of Runthrough staff, who are always so supportive, attentive, encouraging and friendly , nothing is too much trouble for them . I discarded my extra top on the first lap and assumed that it was gone for ever. After finishing I happened to mention it to one of the Runthough staff at the registration desk ,who immediately looked on his phone and advised me that one of their tailwalkers had picked it up and left it at the finish in one of their boxes . He introduced me to another team member and they took me over to retrieve it . The Runthorugh teams are just amazing , as indeed are all the bag drop staff, marshals etc I absolutely love their events! ( and they have the most generous goody bags at the finish !) and

Very well organised events. Would highly recommend and will do more runthrough events.

Drayton manor what a great experience. Parking right next to the start line / finish. Entrance to the park less than a few minutes walk. Course worked very well. Great staff on as well.

Really well organised and a great atmosphere at all the RunThrough events I've taken part in

Joined the RunThrough event at Victoria Park on 3 April for the 5k.
This was the first RunThrough event that we joined but it certainly won’t be the last.
Doesn’t feel as commercial as larger running events.
Really fun community feel and the most fun run event we’ve joined so far!

I had to drop down a distance from the 10km to 5km and I found I had a quick response via email and on the day when I went to change my number over the volunteer was helpful. The course was flat and very well supported by Marshall’s. Even with 3 different races taking place I didn’t feel crowded and felt everyone respected each other. This wasn’t my first runthrough event and won’t be my last.

Lovely staff … we’ll sign posted … warm up is practical and inclusive

I was racing on behalf of the Wolves foundation and race pack was already there and waiting for me.
Staff were really friendly and helpful.

Had a great experience with run through for the Richmond Half Marathon was a great day and to top it of got a PB of 1 hour and 59 minutes for my half Marathon would recommend anyone to sign up for a runthrough race day so fun and such a good day out.

My first ever race & I did the media city half marathon. Very well put together. Great medal.

Booked through Let’s do this. Run through cancelled the event with no communications. I had to google two days before the event to find out what happened. I asked for a refund twice and they keep asking me if I want credits instead of just refunding me. They are not a company that listens or communicates. Will not be using again.

I have been with the company for 10 years and watched it grow into the huge UK brand it is today. I have set pb's into my 50's that are crazy, made many friends, earned 100s of medals, and enjoyed running in all weathers.
Runthrough are totally inclusive of all people - age, gender, ability. They have it all, and when you turn up and see 1600 people on a course on a Sunday morning with a lot of families attending, and stalls of snacks and coffee, and great encouragement for all from whoever is on the mic, it's a great experience.

I love the company, the staff and volunteers are amazing and so friendly and hard working, so if you feel like giving a 5k a go, lace up those trainers and join the club! It doesn't matter if you speed round, plod round, or somewhere in between - you are still running and still being a better you. And RunThrough love you for that.

Running has helped me when life have been tough. My running friends are there for me and this company is a focus. It is what gets me up at dawn on a Sunday sometimes for a race or a training run. They are the best! Inspirational, and my motivation.
