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

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.

The best race in London. This was my 3rd Shoreditch 10k and it is always well organised. The course is twisty and flat with a few nice straights, a perfect mix for PB's and fun. There is a push to go plastic free which is great and the tee and medal are brilliant.

By far the best organised event I’ve attended. Everything about the event was perfect in my opinion, the atmosphere was buzzing from start to finish, the route was ideal for good performances, not to mention the t shirt and the other benefits runners received. I wasn’t sure about entering the Fulham 10k but after this I most definitely will be. The thing that stood out the most for me at this event was the emphasis on using the minimum amount of plastic possible, something other events really don’t seem to focus on

Great event. My first Adidas run and absolutely loved it. The racing tee was of great quality and I liked the fact it had the bib number on it. The venue was easy to get to and bag drop was quick and easy. They also had a small changing room/tent which was a neat touch. The route was interesting and entertainment during the race was perfect. The medal is really neat. Would highly recommend this race.

Good event - a bit pricey. Pre-race: The packs are sent in the post in advance and the t-shirt is good quality. There's no running number as this is printed on your t-shirt, which is novel. Race Day: Organisation is good. There is a bit of standing around in pens before the start and, if it's raining, you get very cold and wet. Route: Very zig-zaggy but completely flat; it does get a bit tiring going around corners constantly. There were a lot of people running very 'erratically' and this can be annoying - you might get bumped into as people jump around trying to cut corners. The route is slightly congested in places. Post-race: The 'after party' at the end of the race is great, with plenty on offer to do post-race. Having the medal handed to you by elite Adidas runners was a nice touch! Other comments: The medal is huge and heavy. Almost unnecessarily so. City runs are expensive compared to other 10kms races (even others in the city); you do get the Adidas t-shirt, which is nice and makes a change, but the medal is too large/heavy and could be made smaller to save a few quid. Would I do it again? Yes, probably.
