Well, once again you have both done an amazing job yet again hosting Storm The Castle 24. As always so many people involved & I thank them all. The marshalling was brilliant, I really couldn't fault it. Every one involved played their parts so well.

I had a lovely day at the Ludlow Half Marathon and the scenery was stunning!! I’ll be back next year for sure.

Super event, really well organised although that final climb on the 10K to the common is nothing short of sadistic! I really enjoyed it. Thank you.
Alastair, Ludlow10
Wanted to say thanks for organising a great event. Hope you and your team are getting some rest. They were so friendly and encouraging at the checkpoints and finish. It’s a great course. Ultra trail runners as you know love a challenge, and that had everything!
Darryl C Midsummer Mortimer Trail winner 2024
Fantastic event thank you very much. All the pre race info was very useful, good communication. On the day all the helpers were friendly. Great location in terms of parking & transition. I loved the course! Great my family could support on the bridge & see me loads on the runs. The bike was challenging enough with great views. Fantastic finish area and our girls loved the face painting & bouncy castle which was a lovely touch that there was no cost attached to it.
