"First time taking part in the Broughton Burn. What an absolute gem of a small race. It’s perfect, no crowds and no pressure. Route was great (apart from the grassy bit 🤣🤣). Thanks to all the organisers, volunteers and Marshall’s. You did a great job and cheering us all on and getting us round. I’ll be doing it again next year."

"Great course, scenic, challenging - hence the BURN - top organisation and marshalls plus awesome goodie bags, spot prizes and t shirts you're proud to wear - not to mention funds raised for a very worthy cause! 💜"
