Race referee Richard Pegg will spot check the entries against Strava (although you don’t have to use Strava to participate in the race). Otherwise it relies on honesty.
Each week the race placings will be posted on the web site and Facebook.
Are there any prizes?
We will provide medals for first and second place (with a Voucher for first) in the following categories:
- Senior Men and Women
- Over 40 Men and Women
- Over 50 Men and Women
- Over 60 Men and Women
- Over 70 Men and Women
Anything else I need to know?
A few main things:
- If running in a group keep to a maximum of 6
- If running solo, then let someone know so if anything bad happens then they know where you are
- When travelling to the start remember some cash for the car park or park safely in the layby.
- It’s a timed run in a public area so please be courteous to other users of the path
- Have Fun!
Any questions contact Richard Pegg via the contact form or on Facebook etc.
Good Luck!
