Organiser's Description
Our first event here is Duck Waddle.
This is one of our timed events where you choose - from 5km to 10k, half to marathon to ultra, you can complete as many, or as few, laps as you like of a 5.3km, 3.28 mile loop course around Thorpe Meadows. We welcome all abilities of runner - complete one lap and you're both a finisher and a winner in our eyes, or keep going and see how far you can get in the full 6 hour time limit and everyone gets the fabulous bespoke finishers' medal.
We also operate our uniquely flexible 'rock up and run' start times within a 1 hour start window, so no waiting around if you arrive early and no added pressure if you're running a bit late.
Not sure how far you wish to run? Well the beauty of this format is that you don't even need to decide in advance - simply come and run a lap and see how you feel on the day and keep on going if it feels right.
Places will be strictly limited so don't leave it too late to enter.
Start anytime between 08:00am and 9:00am (registration open from 7.30am).
Minimum distance is 3.28 miles or as far as you can go in 6 hours. Tarmac cycle paths and small section of gravel path. The overall course has minimal elevation gain / loss making this a relatively flat and fast route.

Course Details
All runners begin with the rowing lake on their left hand side. Run alongside the lake, turning left at the bottom and going through the short grass area and onto the path on the other side of the lake. Follow this path back up the lake. At the top of the lake take a right, and follow the River Nene, keeping it on your left hand side. You then come back out at the bottom of the lake, up a short, sharp hill - sorry - through a very pretty wooded section before arriving back at the aid station.
