Today's LFOTM 5k was up to the usual high standard.
Thank you to all of the organisers and marshals at Serpentine RC.
Stephen Bugden
Just a great race in every way.
Well organised, well marshalled by great people, love this race.
Matthew Bland
Excellent Race
A very well organised race from Start to Finish. Having been a runner for over 40 years I would recommend this event to any club runner. Its probably not the event for the recreational runner who would find Park Run the ideal event. I will definitely be back for future events.

Great Event
I'm sure the race is friendly to beginners but I've been going for so long I really cannot know!
Natasha Pitman

Website is very poor
Ali Farrall
A fabulous competitive yet inclusive 5k race- low cost, low key, always great
One of my favourite races- lovely atmosphere and a really lovely race- I can do it as I don’t work Fridays but it’s great for some to come in lunch breaks too
Lisa Thomas

My favourite race- I’m there every month
I’ve been running this 5k for years, and unless I’m injured, I’m there every month. Superb value for money, encouraging marshals, and it’s a testament to its popularity that you see the same faces every month. Great for all standards of runners.
Johnny Gill
Brilliant , well organised , low-key friendly
I was a first timer at Serpentine & it was a great event. Easy to get to, well organised and friendly. Not a PB course tho - it’s a little hilly.

Fantastic monthly race.
A great race if you want a competitive run, or just an easy lunchtime 5km. Very well organised, and unbelievably great value for money. I enter every month I am available, at least 7 times a year.
Keep up the great work.
Jim Brown
Tremendous. Easy to get to by public transport. Good value. Friendly. Great encouraging empathetic volunteer marshals. And a cafe. Been coming for a "long time," getting slower but still enjoying.
I like getting the number in advance which means I'm ready to go and no queueing. It would be good if once in a while we could go round the previous one lap course. That would up the scenery score and give the satisfaction of running round the Serpentine.

Fantastic, simple race, great organisation, super value
Long may this race continue to prosper. Such an antidote to commercial organisations in London charging £30 for a 5k
