It’s a wonderful way to see the inside of beautiful Regent’s Park of London, UK! You’ll see parts of the zoo, statutes, flower beds, lakes, etc. It’s a great way to hit a few of the iconic point of interest in one shot. I do wish it was one large lap rather than three laps (and the mile markers start to get confusing if you don’t pay attention or have a running watch).
I like that you’re not forced to buy their shirt as part of the registration fee. It’s optional. Extremely reasonably priced. I believe I paid about $30 USD. I got a race bib, a medal and some chocolates at the end.
At a sub 11 pace, I was towards the very end of the pack. But that’s okay. As I always say “forward is forward” and it’s not about how fast you’re going but having the courage to start and the determination to finish. There was no expo; they had one water stop (near the start) which you’ll pass by three times. It’s definitely not as big of a production compared to the races in the US but it’s very efficient, safe and scenic. I’m glad I did it. Very easy registration and helpful organizers. If you have an international run on your bucket list or you’ll be there for “holiday” as they say (vacation), do it.
