What's the cut off time?

Due to road closure timings, the last runner to cross the start line has 1 hour and 40 minutes to finish. Don’t fear, this leaves all of our runners plenty of time to finish – an average speed of 10 minutes/km or 16 minutes/mile to be exact!

Your result will be sent to you by SMS after the event and will also be available to access on the event website.

Great event. This is the perfect event if you are looking to get a 10k PB. The max elevation gain was 7m, so there are absolutely no obstacles in the way of achieving one. It was a well organised event, they make you recycle the chips at the end, no longer give out water bottles (instead water in a can) and the medals and T shirts feel like good quality. It is a slightly more expensive event, but you do get a free t shirt and free race photos for it.
