Organiser's Description
EASTER CHALLENGE
LOCATION: Suffolk Running Centre, IP29 5AX
Come start the Easter break with a lovely run around the Suffolk Countryside.
It's a six-hour event, starting at 9am to run as far as you can during the time. As long as you are leaving the Base Camp by 5:59:59 you get to run another lap, we have a 10.5k loop with a mix of road and trail.
For this event we intend to use the BACK QUACK route
You can run as much or little as you want to, you can rest between laps if you like and head out for some more.
You may be completing your first official 5k,10k, Half Marathon, Full Marathon or even ultra-Marathon, or it may be your 100th or 1000th.
This race is also ideal for those who want to try and achieve a Marathon distance and for those who also want the option to push a little further.
Parking is included in your entry.
On the day
We will position a marshal in the car park to assist you with your parking and direct you then onto the venue. You will then proceed to the Race Registration area to collect your bib numbers.
There will be a space for baggage in the hut near the start but these are left at your own risk and should not contain valuables.
The Race HQ/Base Camp is located at the start and Lap point we will have our water/aid station, the Race director will call you all to the start line. It will be a mass start.
Please note the event has gone cupless - so please bring your own bottles or cups for refilling.
The terrain consists of road and trail. Our suggestion is to wear road trainers, but depending on the weather before the event you may want to bring trails if you have them but not essential.
We have designed a Bespoke medal for the event, which you will receive at the end of the race. (Unless you have chosen the Finishers Medal Option your medal choice will be a standard finisher medal)
We will have virtual spaces available for anyone who wants the run for the medal but cannot make the event date. These are only available on our Zig Zag Running website
