RunThrough Events Reviews 

Newmarket half marathon 31st may 2026
Very badly handled by some of the staff on the barriers. There were no diverion signs which led to alot of confusion, a cyclist was told that he had to go to cambridge and back down the A14 to enter Newmarket on the far sde from Dullingham it would have taken him all day never mind the safety issue of cycling on the A14, another couple in their 80s were told the same which seemed to really distress the driver, a lady who lived in Dullingham road was told she could not go home until 1pm , one motorist tried to drive through the barrier the barrier staff stupidly placed themselves in danger by standing in front of the car filming the driver on a mobile phone which only added fuel to the situation. Drivers watching were discussing whether to phone the police before someone was hurt. Fortuately there was a retired police officer in the queue who was able to calm things down.
NEXT TIME the organisers could provide sign post diversions, inform staff of other routes to help drivers and staff who know how to talk to people and maybe open roads once runners have passed through rather than keep the whole course shut all morning.

Brilliant events, organised well, varied locations and regular.

Hugely accessible, customer service is great, open for all abilities with no snobbery! Highly recommended!

Did the Fox Ultra 62k at the weekend, stunning route, fabulously signposted, well organised and plenty of Marshalls on route.
I think one more aid station was needed as a little too far apart for such a distance and due to the distance feel some sandwiches or a little something more substantial could be added to the food stations

Got season pass which makes it really good value for money and can enter race at short notice. Volunteers always helpful, friendly and supportive. Have recommended Run Through to friends, some of whom have joined me!

The Colchester Zoo 10k stampede was another event by Run Through that I have attended.It was very well organised with plenty of signage to the location.The event village was excellent with plenty of vendors,a great atmosphere and most importantly lots of Loos.The course started in the zoo and went out into the beacountrtside before finishing back at the zoo it had some challenging points and its was ver well marshalled,overall very enjoyable to run.Post race goodies were a help your self service which is great idea,free photos was a bonus.As race days go this was one of the best I have done this year.I can highly recommended Run Through as an excellent event organiser.

Great organization, felt prepared before the race especially considering the heat. We were texted the day before with weather based reminders about water and kit. Well stocked aid stations and friendly marshals along the way. The finish area was great, nice to have the cold 0% beers and the cooling stations. The slate coaster medal is excellent!

Massive well done to the RunThrough Trail team
Ran the Fox Trail 41km for the third year running
Really love this event, not overly hilly but especially challenging this year due to the heat. It was brutally warm in places.
Great course, excellent organisation with a really well marked route.
Marshall’s were so good and were always in the right places (so important)
Finish area is great and this years medal was the best yet.
Hopefully be back for number 4 in 2027.
Thank you RunThrough 🥵

Well organised event for runners and on this occasion for spectators also with the inclusion of food stalls shame no hot food though.
My only criticism would be the final 100m run in to the finish! The ground was very rough with some big loose chunks that could easily turn a ankle over but the rest of the coarse was great 👍

Great event, lovely staff and runners will definitely consider doing this again in future.

Always a great well organised event. Fab Marshall’s great course

**** thank you for the reply, but unfortunately what you're saying is simply not true. You've already told me twice via email that the results had been uploaded when they were not and now you're saying there was an error but they're now there.....well they're not.

Stop lying, admit you're struggling to resolve the problem and get the right resource to resolve***

I have very mixed opinions of RunThrough. Their events are generally very enjoyable, but there are way more down south which isn't ideal. They're priced well and the organisation is very good.

My main issue is that they advertise their Trail races as index races for UTMB and ITRA, however at the moment they have stopped providing results so their last few trail races have not been scored.

For those of you who rely of these results for sponsorship etc, just be careful and maybe go elsewhere until this issue is resolved.

Did the Colchester zoo stampede 10k, well organised and I enjoyed the route. Great atmosphere before and after the run and would 100% do it again

As always a really well organised Runthrough event at Heaton Park Women's race series.
On arriving at Heaton Park visitors carpark the signs to the event village were bright and practical, toilet facilities good and the Marshall were out in force with practical support and lots of encouragement on the course. The race director was fantastic with keeping us up to date and enthused for the race. Picking up our race packs and info was straightforward.The warm up good and the course well signed and accurately described. The medals are beautiful with 2 types available, drinks and other freebies at the end. A special thank you to your photographer who really did catch the flavour of the day and seemed to get to all points of the course. A great day, race and experience 😀

Amazing atmosphere as usual with RunThrough, I have finished 2nd in Hemel Hempstead and I was surprised to receive a GORGEOUS TROPHY as well , also a voucher to buy merchandise from their website, truly amazing to run with RunThrough 🤩😊🏃🙏🏼
Strongly recommend 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

RunThrough events are usually great and well organised. The booking process is simple and it’s really easy to navigate the results and photos afterwards 😁

Runthrough events are really great fun, organised well and the team is always happy to help with anything you need.

Once again a very welcoming organisation event clear instructions and advice on how the race is going to start. Helpful staff and volunteers giving lots of encouragement to the runners.

Allways sign up with Run through find it ever so easy and not complicated at all and the locations are so well organised and the courses are well stewarded and friendly and the merchandise is reasonable
