Event overview
The 5km and 10km races start together and split at around 3.5km. The split is clearly signed and marshalled. The colour of your race number indicates the race you are running, so the marshals know how to direct you. There is no water station on the route. A plentiful supply of water is available at the finish. Although the route is all on well worn trails, some sections are boggy and some sections are steep. There are low branches, tree roots, and the occasional rabbit hole or farmer so please take care while competing and we would suggest you wear trail shoes if you have them (although not essential). It's a trail race, please run within your limits, a sprained ankle is no fun. Post race - Refreshing water and fetching bling will be provided at the finish, then join us at Race HQ for free tea and cake!
