FAQ
-
Nothing.
-
No.
-
First timers, please register online here before the race. If you do it several hours or more before your first race, that makes it easier for us.
-
Yes.
-
We’ll consider you as any other path user, and you won’t be included in results.
-
After you are registered, your number will appear here. The process is partly manual, so it may take some time after you register. In any case, there is a board with the numbers at the start / finish. If you can’t see your number, ask us and we’ll sort it out.
-
We’ll sort it out while you’re running – we’ll have your bib number at the finish line.
-
Yes. But please take a minute to fill the form online before you start. Please chat with one of the organisers if you do not have a device to use.
-
No, please just register once.
-
Yes, in this case you can register again, and we’ll sort it out. In future we may have a login where you can change details.
-
No roads will be closed. You will be running alongside an active road and crossing a railway line. It is your responsibility to look for trains or cars before crossing the railway line, or any roads, and cross only if you judge it to be safe. Other people, prams, lime scooters, bikes and dogs may be on the course. Running is a physically active sport. You should always seek advice from your GP before taking up a strenuous physical pursuit such as this.
-
Please keep left and give way to others.
-
You can choose to either run 10k (5k out and 5k back) or 5k (2.5k out and 2.5k back).
-
Check the course number for the event. Once you have that, check the Course Details page for maps. The linked location is where the race starts.
-
This varies. As soon as we know the next race day and time, we put it at the top of this page here.
-
Only the 10k. If you’re running the 5k, you’re welcome to stick with the 10k pacer until the turn around.
-
We sort this out just before the race – we’ll try to accommodate you. We won’t have pacers slower than 60min. If you want a pacer faster than 40min for the 10k, send an email to Danny Baillie at least a couple of days before the race and we’ll try.
-
We’ll wait for you for 90min.
-
Of course you can walk part of the distance. In the 90min that we wait, you may be able to casually walk the 5k, but walking the 10k is only for race-walkers. You can race-walk and we’ll include you in the results as a runner.
-
Yes.
-
Please tell us at the finish if you’ve run the 5k.
-
Yes, but you won’t be included in the results. Please don’t go into the finishing chute.
-
Yes. Please check out the course beforehand – e.g. getting across the railway line. We’ll decide with you what to do about results – chat with us at the end.
-
Yes. Children under the age of 16 years old are the responsibility of their parents or guardians who need to be accompany them at all times before, during and after the run.
-
