Training plan

Keeping Lincoln green

This event is committed to keeping Lincoln green and understands the importance of doing its bit for the environment. Bins will be provided across the event site and people are urged to use the facilities provided. It is important that the course is left the way it was found. Recycling bins will be provided on course at each water station and runners are asked to use them. If you want to hang on to your water beyond the provided bins, please pass any litter to your nearest marshal.

Let’s work together to Keep Lincoln green and encourage other runners to do the same.

Race numbers/registering

If you have your race number, you don't need to register on event day. If you need to collect your race number, please have your confirmation email handy. You can collect a number on behalf of someone else if you have their confirmation email.
