Event Day Information
What's my start time?
Start waves will be released approximately 2 weeks prior to the event weekend. Please check back closer to the event date.
Do I have to wear the free adidas t-shirt?
All runners must wear the free adidas race day t-shirt they receive in advance of the event. This will have your unique race number printed on it which will pair with your timing chip and also be used to identify you for your personal photos.
If you have secured a GOSH place you will be given a charity vest from GOSH to wear. You will receive a race number bib in your Event Pack and will be required to pin this on to make sure you get picked up by our photographers and receive your personal photos.
Do I have to collect a timing chip?
You will receive your timing chip along with your adidas race day t-shirt in the post in the lead up to the event. Remember to wear this on your shoe on race day so you can get an official time!
Will there be Pacers?
Yes. Our friendly pacers sourced through the adidas Runners community will be there on the day to help you achieve your target time.
We have pacers for the following times:
Sub 40 minutes
40 minutes
45 minutes
50 minutes
55 minutes
60 minutes
65 minutes
70 minutes
75 minutes
What's the cut off time?
The last runner to cross the start line has 1 hour and 40 minutes to finish. Unfortunately, we have to have a cut off time due to road closure limitations. Don’t fear, there is plenty of time to finish – runners need to be able to maintain a 6kph pace across the route (this is brisk walking pace)
Spectators
Can I walk around the Event Village and Route?
Yes of course. Our Event Village is open to runners and spectators from 07:45 until 13:00 and will be full of entertainment and food and drink vendors for everyone to enjoy. There will be crossing points at various sections of the route too, where our Marshals will be on hand to point you to the nearest one.
Faqs
Can I listen to music whilst running?
We strongly discourage the use of any equipment that acts as an impediment to hearing or concentration when running. This includes, but is not limited to, mobile telephones, personal stereos and MP3 players. Please note we cannot be responsible for accidents resulting from taking part with such equipment.
Are you accepting participants taking part in a wheelchair?
Whist we are always looking for ways to make our events as inclusive as possible, we unfortunately are unable to accommodate wheelchair racers. We apologise for any disappointment this may cause.
Can I run with my child in a buggy?
Yes, however the child must remain in the buggy at all times and not run alongside the other runners, and each runner who runs with a buggy must set off at the back of the final pen. If you wish to run with your child in a buggy please complete this Parental Consent Form and bring it to Help Desk on Sunday morning ahead of the race start. Please note Help Desk will be open from 07:45.
Baggage
Will there be a bag drop?
Yes. We want you to be able to get some fresh clothes on before re-joining your family and friends to Unlock Shoreditch and make the most of the fantastic offers we’ve organised. Remember to keep your medal with you to access these great discounts.
